Ingredients

8 lb pork shoulder
1/4 cup yellow mustard
1/4 cup Christie Vanover's Pork Rub
1 cup barbecue sauce

Instructions

Season: Remove the pork shoulder from the packaging and pat it dry. Rub the pork shoulder all over with mustard. Then, sprinkle liberally with pork rub.
Heat Grill: Add pellets to the smoke box. Set the Ninja Woodfire Grill to smoker. Set the temperature to 250F degrees and the time to 7 hours.
Smoke: Place the seasoned pork shoulder on the grill and cook it until the meat is fork tender and the internal temperature registers around 200F degrees.
Rest: Remove it from the grill. Wrap it in plastic wrap or foil and let it rest for about an hour.
Serve: Shred the meat with your hands or two forks (see notes above). Sprinkle with more rub and barbecue sauce and serve.

Notes

Sometimes stores will call this cut pork shoulder and sometimes it will be called pork butt. If you're not sure if you're buying the right cut, tell your butcher you're making pulled pork and they should be able to hook you up.

I always set the Ninja to more time than is needed so the clock doesn’t run out in the middle of the cook. If the food is done cooking before the timer runs out, just push stop to turn the grill off.

For more smoky flavor, refill the smoke box with pellets every hour or so.
