Grilled Pork Butt
Ingredients
1 whole pork butt (bone-in)
Your favorite BnB Saus
Olive oil (1.5 Cups)
Meat Tenderizer (5 tbs)
Garlic Powder (4 tbs)
Pepper (3 tbs)
Thyme (4 tbs)
Smoke seasoning (5 tbs)
Paprika (2 tbs)
Season Salt (3 tbs)
Italian Seasoning (3 tbs)
Chili Powder (2 tbs)
Everglades Seasoning (2 tbs)
Preparation
Combine the seasonings into one bowl.
Trim some of the fat off the top of the pork butt. Make sure to not trim the bottom fat. There will be a nice layer of fat there and you will want that to render through the meat as you cook.
Score the bottom fat down and across so the seasonings can pass through it into the meat. It will also help the fat to render and break down as it cooks.
Beat the meat with a tenderizer to loosen the connective tissue. This will allow the seasonings and fat to really flow through the meat.
Drizzle the olive oil and gently rub it in.
Add your rub, making sure to work into the meat folds and into the bottom fat layer.
Marinate for at least 30 minutes. For best results, marinate the day before and store in the refrigerator overnight.
