PORK NECK - Smoked vs Smoked and Braised Comparison | FOGO Charcoal

What makes the best pulled pork, SMOKING or SMOKING & BRAISING? Wrapped or Dutch Oven? We wanted to know so we gave it a shot with pork necks aka pork collar. We wrapped one in foil, then one braised in beer. I'll tell you this, they were both fantastic!

One of the most often overlooked parts of the pig is the pork neck. This, in my humble opinion is a giant mistake. It is a flavor packed, tender piece of meat and takes well to smoking or smoking and braising. Braising is basically a way of cooking using dry and wet heat. In this case, smoked first, then left to simmer in a covered pot full of beer and onions. Sounds great already, doesn’t it?

We used 2 pork necks from PORTER ROAD BUTCHERS and we could not have asked for any nicer cuts. They were full of the fat that you want in a neck and had plenty of meat on each. We did them both side by side in our FOGO COTTON GIN SMOKER. In each method we used, the fat really renders down nicely and helps to baste and flavor the final product. The PS SEASONINGS - Notorious P.I.G. delivered a mouthful of flavor with a great mix of sweet and spicy. We were overly impressed. You can feel free to use whatever seasoning you would like but this was fantastic.
