picksbigwagon Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Okay, I have two 8 pound boneless pork shoulders on hour 9 right now, waiting for 190 degrees. I will foil it in 3 hours, but my question is: they are for a party lon saturday, do I vacuum pack them tonight after they have cooled and then pull them on saturday, or do it tonight? My thought is to not pull them, vacuum pack them when they have cooled, then saturday morning, place the vac bag in a pot pf boiling water, take it off the heat and let it warm up for 30 minutes before I pull it and then put it in a crocpot with some chicken broth.....what are you opinions?

Jim Almquist Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 What I did for a graduation party was to shred it and put it in the crock pot that night and cover with wrap. First thing in the morning pull it out and start heating it up. I added a little apple juice and put some of my rub in with the meat. I had roughly 18 pounds of meat and barely had a 1/2 pound left over. Lots of complements Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walleyehooker Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 I just did this a while back. Left them whole untill the morning of the party then pulled them and heated them up in big electric roaster.Added some apple juice for additional moisture.

OnAFly Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I've done it like this: Pull, add a little cider vinegar and some rub, mix well, refrigerate. It worked well for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
