Need help, starter cooking pulled pork but am using a pork loin

[smokeasaurus]

Glad to hear supper was saved.......every once in a while we come in handy

I like a well cooked tenderloin. But the whole loin doesn't do much for me. Cut pork steaks from the shoulder I think they are better

tee - TLTR but sure seems like you spent a bunch of time defending a marginal initial recommendation. Bottom line (loin?) is that pork loin can be pulled but doesn't lend itself to that prep.  He can make a better meal at the campsite by grilling/roasting as suggested by our learned brethren.

Just because you can doesn't mean you should (unless you're experimenting which requires a wingman to hold your beer and a fallback position).

OBTW, steal the bike regardless.

DID you read THIS ...you you old living fossil... "batsu - because you ae camping - I too would recommend a boston butt - or a beef chuck for "pulled" meats. Just easier and more forgiving under those circumstances.
If you are curious I have a link for pulled pork for you: http://www.letstalkbbq.com/index.php?topic=869.0

As well - did you consider this:  We do not have rules that mandate certain things at home, that would be enforced in competitions. The only rule here is : What would you like to do?

AND - and it is easy to get a fixation on what a particular cut "should" be cooked like - but I ask you...HOW do we learn - if we are not open minded and wiling to experiment sometimes? HERE....our only competitors should be ourselves. YOU decide if you are happy with your results. If not, ask questions - and try suggested other methods - but PLEASE don't quash the creativity...

AND - LTBBQ is ALL about thinking outside the box folks. That is why we are here, and I challenge you to at least try this - before you automatically shoot down the idea. The texture will be different that traditional PP - but what the heck YOU may actually like it

SO...the ONLY thing I am defending is CREATIVITY.  It seems that all to often...we - as a species become "hard shelled ( see what I did there... ?) and forget that there MAY actually be something else to learn - *IF* - and this is a BIG if for some of us...We can remain open minded enough to believe in the possibility of additional methods having equitable merit to that only one which we are familiar and comfortable. Yeah - get out of you comfort zone..and try it before you shoot it down. And if you have not tried it - then you really have no business telling someone else not to....

And..Turtle...bike stolen...and he paid me to give it back...with interest!

Turtle chastised. Bloody but unbowed.

The first part is not true - about being chastised. But it was fun poking a stick in your shell... The second part...I will contact the Mrs. Turtle - tell her you are showing  your surly snappin' turtle heritage  and - I will bet SHE has the vice grips that will make you take a knee...

I follow the path of righteousness and am shielded by truth from the evil of the white-legged demon. My heart is pure and my soul (and more tender parts) secure.

PS - Doesn't look like your Aggies are doing too well today in their quest for post-season glory.

The defendant - pretty much the same thing you call one for the previous 12-15 years since his/her high school graduation).
