When I bbq I try to make two or three different types of meat. It keeps me from lighting up the BBQ-charcoal-and I can have BBQ all week.

I made hamburgers, hotdogs and cooked a pork shoulder. the price for one is really cheap- anywhere from 1.18 - 1.38 a pound, with the bone inside! A deal because you can get two meals out of it.

A five pound shoulder will get you pork/carnitas tacos and a BBQ sandwiches..

I take the shoulder, cut it down, rub with salt and pepper, wrap in heacy foil and toss on a BBQ. away from the direct heat for about 3 hours.

For the pork tacos?
Take about a lb and a half of your bbqed meat. Hand shred it, set aside.

HEat a skillet and add about 2 tablespoons of lard into the bottom, add your meat. During the heating half a lemon and remove the seeds. Squeeze one half into the meet and add the lemon, rind and all to the pan, squeeze the other half in - you can add both halves of the lemon, i like mine with both. As the lemon heats up it will get soft-it will produce more of the lemon flavor if you smash it down as you go.

Your 'carnitas' will start to get browned and the smaller pieces will get crunchy. It's all a matter of taste-

Heat up corn tortillas, toss some meat on and add refried beans, lettuce, tomato, guacamole, monterey jack and anything else you can think of!

Easy BBQ pork sandwiches?


I took the rest of the pork meat I grilled-about 2 lbs- tossed it into a pan with 1/4 cup of bbq sauce, 1/4 cup of ketchup, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes and a tablespoon of vinegar.

I them reheated it for 1.5 hours, took a potatoe smasher and 'shredded' the meat that way.
