“Instead of pork shoulder, I used two loins of pork. (They were on sale at Costco and I thought Why Not ). Fabulous outcome! I froze the pulled pork in individual portions using my Food Safer - a delicious "I need it now" treasure in my freezer. My grandson, ho” — a cook
“Instead of making beans or throwing away the cooking liquid, I just strained it, put in a 12" fry pan (for surface area) and reduced it by 2/3's. Made the perfect BBQ sauce to put on the sandwiches because it matched the flavor profile of the meat!” — a cook
