Barbecued Pulled Pork Sandwiches with Homemade BBQ Sauce and Pickles
It's my go-to Carolina style sauce. The rub is decent, I adjust some of the ingredients to my taste. And the mopping sauce is good, I don't use as much cracked black pepper in it. I strain it and put it in a spray bottle to spritz the shoulder when I smoke them:

Okay. I won't....please tell me those are not temp gauges stuck in the meat....
Next time you smoke meat....... For the last two hours wrap it (heavily and tight) in heavy duty tin foil so it steams,,,,, It will be the tenderest meat you have ever eaten... Add a bit of sauce and turn it every 30 min during that last two hour... UNFREAKING realOkay. I won't....
That's what I do. A couple of hours of smoke, then wrapped, low and slow.Next time you smoke meat....... For the last two hours wrap it (heavily and tight) in heavy duty tin foil so it steams,,,,,
here is my final creation......
S.C. bbq sauce
I use a regular spoon and it was a heaping spoon…
- 16 oz yellow mustard
- 4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
- ½ cup apple cider vinegar
- 4 teaspoon molasses
- 1 teaspoon chipotle powder
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder (I used hot hatch red chili) paprika is a good flavor as well for the not spicy crowd
- 1 teaspoon garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground pepper
Directions
Whisk it all together…. Keep it in fridge…. The longer it sits the better it tastes…
You can always add some drippings.... Baste the meat in the sauce....After I had Sweatman’s in NC I was HOOKED! The closest I ever lived was about 5hrs away so I scoured the nets and back then (‘09) there weren’t very many options but cooks illustrated had an almost exact match and it was the only sauce which included drippings from the smoked pork(I’m 99% sure sweatmans does this). In any case it produced a Yellow mustard based sauce that was pretty damn amazing. Unfortunately it’s behind a pay wall so I don’t have access any longer. I’ll have to give your sauce a shot. Thanks for sharing!
