Directions

Preheat your smoker to 250 °F using hickory wood or pellets.
Prepare the pork shoulder: Trim off any hanging pieces or hard fat (save trimmings for baked beans) and score the fat in a crosshatch pattern.
Apply Southern Gal's BBQ Sauce by Old Southern BBQ as a binder and season with Old Southern BBQ Rib Rub.
Place on smoker, fat side up and smoke for 7 hours (until 170 - 180 °F internal temp).
Increase smoker temperature to 325 °F.
Prepare the potatoes: Add whole russet potatoes seasoned with Old Southern BBQ Rib Rub and a spritz of cooking oil to a sheet of foil. Wrap, pierce with fork, and place on smoker.
Place pork shoulder in a foil pan or grill safe dish and add 1/4 cup Southern Gal's BBQ Sauce by Old Southern BBQ and 1/2 can of cherry cola.
Cover pork shoulder with foil and smoke for an additional 1 hour or until internal temperature reaches 203 °F.
Remove potatoes, and slice down the middle.
Shred the pork butt, and prepare the baked potato toppings.
Top potatoes with pulled pork and your favorite toppings. Don’t forget a drizzle of Southern Gal's BBQ Sauce by Old Southern BBQ.

Recipe Note

Pro Tip: Notice we’ve prepared this recipe to be the perfect weeknight meal! Prepare the pork butt overnight to throw on the smoker first thing in the morning. In the late afternoon or early evening, the pork butt goes into its braising stage as well as roasting the potatoes.
