Carolina-Style Pulled Pork

The keys to a stellar pulled pork are a rich, tomato-based sauce, a meaty cut like pork shoulder, and patience. Slow-cook your pork in a smoker or oven until it's fall-apart tender, then shred it and toss it in your homemade BBQ sauce. Serve on buns with coleslaw and pickles for an elevated take on the classic sandwich.

For a perfect sidekick to your pulled pork, try making homemade pickles. Quick-pickled cucumbers tossed in spices and vinegar add a tangy crunch that complements the rich pork and sweet sauce.

Ribs: St. Louis-Style and Beyond

When it comes to ribs, the St. Louis-style cut is the gold standard. These Spareribs, stripped of their flap meat and cartilage, are perfectly proportional for grilling and packed with flavor. Leave the membrane on for easier handling and improved smoke penetration.

For the glaze, try a Memphis-style blend of brown sugar, tomato paste, vinegar, and spices. Apply the glaze during the last 20-30 minutes of cooking for a beautifully caramelized finish. Don't forget to pull back the heat and cook low and slow for tender, fall-off-the-bone ribs.
