Comfort on the grill, this makes a fabulous meal for a hot summer day. Be sure to invite several friends! Cheap white buns work best for this.

Pulled Pork

5 pounds bone-in pork shoulder roast

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 tablespoon chili powder

1 tablespoon ground cumin

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1/2 tablespoon ground oregano

2 tablespoons paprika

1 tablespoon salt

1/2 tablespoon sugar

1/2 teaspoon pepper

Mix all spices in a small bowl. Massage dry rub into meat and let sit in the refrigerator overnight. Set out at room temperature for an hour before cooking. Cook on the grill at about 200 F for 3 or 4 hours. Wrap tightly in foil, transfer to a baking pan with sides, bake at 325 F for a further 2 hours or until fork tender. Remove from the oven and let cool for an hour. Shred the meat with two forks, removing bits of fat, tendons and bone as you go. Mix 1 cup BBQ sauce with the meat and serve extra on the side.

BBQ Sauce

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1/2 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves minced garlic

1/2 cup cider vinegar

1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon dry mustard

1 tablespoon dark brown sugar

1 tablespoon paprika

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 cup Ketchup

Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; saute until softened, 4-5 minutes. Stir in all remaining ingredients except ketchup; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, then add ketchup. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 15 minutes.
