UPSCALE PULLED BARBECUE!

I rarely crave a certain type of food. However, Pulled Pork Barbecue,  Coleslaw, and hushpuppies,

have been on my mind all week. This Southern meal is a favorite for my family. I try not to 

eat it,  but once every six months. I am trying to eat healthier, so I limit my intake of fried foods

 and certain cuts of pork.

There was a restaurant  I loved that served delicious Turkey Barbecue. It was so good and it

tasted as good as Pork Barbecue!  They closed their doors three months go. Bummer!

I used to make Turkey Barbecue using turkey thighs. The neighborhood grocery store

that sold them,  moved to another town a few years ago. A lady I used to work with

sold Turkey Barbecue for her father. She took orders for  pints of the his barbecue

and delivered it for him. It was very good. I tried to get recipe from her. She would 

only tell me a few secrets.  Her father, slow cooked  whole turkeys, deboned them,

 and simmered them in his Secret Sauce.

I was grocery shopping Wednesday when I saw a pork roast and turkey loin marked

down to cheaper prices. I wondered if I could combine these two meats together

 and make great tasting "  Pulled Barbecue".  I recalled that some brands of hot 

dogs, sausage, and meatloaf  mix have pork and turkey mixed together.  This store 

also carries an old fashioned barbecue sauce that tastes like Carolina Vinegar 

Pulled Pork Barbecue Sauce. 

RECIPE:   UPSCALE PULLED BARBECUE:

READ ALL THE  TIPS BEFORE COOKING!!

2lb - 3 lb Swift Sirloin or Shoulder  Pork Roast (  boneless )

Butterball Turkey Breast Loin, 24 oz

3 cups water or more.

 1 teaspoon Smoked sea salt

1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika

1\4 cup Allegro Marinade 

1\2 teaspoon Black pepper

1 small bunch scallion tops

1\2 cup Baby Ray Chipotle Sauce

Finishing Sauce

16 oz Bottle George's Original Barbecue Sauce

Note: The Pork Roast and the Turkey Loin had two pieces in each package.

I only removed  one section of meat from each package (Only need four servings).

DOUBLE LIST INGREDIENTS IF WHOLE PACKAGE OF BOTH MEATS  USED!!

Rinse meats well with cold water. Place them in large pot or Dutch oven.

Make sure WATER covers the meats. Add the rest of the ingredients, Except 

George's BBQ sauce. Bring contents in pot to a boil, then lower the temperature

 to medium  (185 - 190 degrees Fahrenheit- depends on your stove!). Cover pot

with a lid and let meats simmer until fork tender ( about 1- 1 1\2 hours).

Remove the meats from the pot after it gets fork tender. Use 

2 forks to pull the  pork and turkey apart.  Reserve 1 1\2'cups

of the cooking liquid from the  pot.  Place the pulled  meats 

cooking liquid, and 1 1\2 cups of George's BBQ sauce in the pot. 

Stir meats  and sauces until they are well combined..  Make sure

 the pulled meat is covered with sauce. Add more George's BBQ 

sauce, if necessary. Let the meat simmer 30 minutes, so flavors 

can meld together. Serve with Coleslaw or your favorite side dish.
