I understand the laziness and goodness of the coke can pork butt. I did it a little different and am pretty happy with the results.
4 lb pork butt however you can adjust to whatever size suits you.
-Take 2 med onions and just peel and cut into halves then cut long ways, no need to dice, onions will take you a minute or two tops. They will cook down and be perfect later.
-4 cloves of garlic, again you can slice up more but I found 4 to be sufficient. Slice them like the onions and add on top.
-cup of chix broth, again you can sub as you like
Now I make a rub with 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 tablespoon kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon...mix that up and rub it all over the outside of the pork, don't waste any of it. Then place the pork with the fat side on the top do it drips down into the meat.
I cooked it on high for 5.5 hours. Pulled it and the bone fell right out, was definitely done. Lot of fat, able to discard all that. I would say 3:1 on meat to fat, not sure that is right but I think there is between 2 and 2.5 lbs, maybe a little more of meat that was produced.
I shred it and then I drain the onions and garlic but keep them to put back in, they have so much flavor you should not waste them. I pour in about 1 cup of Weber's sweet n spicy bbq sauce, has a nice flavor and the meat needs it but I would not go 2 cups as some recipes call for. I start off slow with the sauce and add until it is covered but not swimming. You can always add a little on the bun or plate. Mix the onions n garlic in with the meat n sauce, let it heat for 30 min to an hour and serve.
I took a Martin's seeded bun, buttered n toasted. Made a side of slaw
Wife says best thing she has had in about forever. Thanks for the thread and inspiring me to make something delicious. I know this method requires slightly more work ut not much and the flavors were awesome. I want to tinker with it and try some liquid smoke and or worceshire sauce.
