Drill Attachment Pork Butt Puller

[CDN Smoker]

I have one of these and it does tear up a butt fast. I'm not say I got mine from this fellow it's just the first one that popped up. I'm sure his is better

But it also tears up your pots


When I'm pulling apart a butt now I take the time to remove anything that does not look good so I might as well keep going. Will look for some bear claws

There is just something cathartic about reaching in with a pair of gloves on and (while burning the heck out of my hands) tearing up the pork.  I like big chunks as opposed to a fine pull, and that is the best way to do it IMO.

I am with Chris. I don't like the "drill powered pork pullers" They destroy the "bite" and turn pork into the makins' for Sloppy Joes.....They shred indiscriminately. I don;t even like the Bear Claws. Bought a pair, and - just felt like they were in my way...And - as you pointed out Drew - they destroy the container. ( Gee I wonder how much aluminum out of that pot is in the pork....? NONE would be better... )

Remember the "glove" thread. Well - here is where the Fryer Gloves come in particularly handy. They are so well insulated - yet flexible - that they make fast work out of real "pulled" pork.
And enough of the muscle structure stays intact - so that you get a nice textured bite.

I can see where that would be usefull.  If you have to pull a hundred pounds, and dont want to take all day.  I rarely do  over ten pounds, at a time.  Normally I cook five pound butts.  I just use rubber gloves and a fork or two.  I can also sample some while I am doing it.

I do remember the Gloves they are on my list. I will go for them before the claws.

Thanks

I'm with you on this one, put on a pair of food handlers gloves, have a cold beer close by and start pulling.

A food paper shredder may be on shark tank next, confetti pork or plane shred

I absolutely agree 100%. I got a pair of the Summit "fryer gloves" (which are good for up to 400° F).

These gloves, coupled with a good heavy knife chef knife and a disposable cutting board, are all I need to make quick work of multiple shoulders when cooking for a large crowd. And like Tee said, the texture is great.

Here's Chris Lilly pulling/chopping about 30 lbs of pork butts in 2 minutes!
