Rubbing and pulling

South Knox Bubba teaches us about pulled pork (and puts me in the mood for some BBQ):

"...there is no 'recipe' for pulled pork. There are only principles and guidelines. Did da Vinci have a 'recipe' for the Mona Lisa? Pulled pork is performance art. And every performance is different. The only goal therefore is a great performance resulting in consistently good, if different, pork.

Once you have your butt and your rub, the next step is to rub your butt. (I recommend you get some of those plastic food prep gloves or your hands will be stained red for a couple of days). Apply prodigious amounts of rub all over the butt and massage it in thoroughly, making sure to get it in all the cracks and crevices and deep into the fat."

He's funny, and instructive!
