Cold Brew BBQ
The Grillax crew loves to play around with flavors, and when it comes to pork we almost always find a way to infuse coffee. This recipe uses steeped cold brew coffee to inject our pork shoulders before a slow and low smoke.
What's In It?
- 5-8 pounds Bone-in pound pork shoulder
- 1 cup Califia Farms Cold brew coffee (or make your own) See steps above in the article
- 1/2 cup Heath Riles Garlic & Jalapeño Rub Base rub
- 1/2 cup Key's Southern Seasoning Bark rub
How to Make It
-
Heat smoker to 215 degrees Fahrenheit. Have enough fuel for 10-12 hours of smoke time.
-
Remove pork shoulder from wrapper and rinse with cold water. Pat dry with paper towels to remove all moisture.
-
Use a large culinary injection syringe to inject 1 cup Califia Farms Cold brew coffee (or make your own) into pork shoulder. Penetrate at least 1.5 to 2 inches. Be sure to inject in all sides.
-
Add 1/2 cup Heath Riles Garlic & Jalapeño Rub base to the pork shoulder. Pat into the meat.
-
Add 1/2 cup Key's Southern Seasoning bark rub to the pork shoulder. Pat into the meat.
-
Place pork shoulder fat side down away from direct flame.
-
Once internal temperature reads 160 degrees Fahrenheit, wrap in butcher paper.
-
Return to smoker and continue cooking until the shoulder reaches and internal temperature of 195-200 degrees.
-
Let cool down for an hour before pulling/shredding pork. The shoulder blade should pull out easily.
