For those who do prefer to read, keep scrolling and you will find the recipe at the end of this post! If you like this post, be sure to leave us a comment and we will do more content like this!

Scott’s Smoked Pulled Pork

Serving Size:
A whole bunch
Time:
5-10 hours
Difficulty:
Easy-ish

Ingredients

  • Pork Shoulder Roast
  • Yellow Mustard
  • Your favorite dry rub
  • Apple juice
  • BBQ Sauce

Directions

  1. Preheat smoker to 225-250 degrees
  2. Cover roast with yellow mustard as a binder
  3. Cover with your favorite rub. You can either buy a premade rub or make one. Scott’s favorite is a blend of salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder.
  4. When roast is generously covered with rub, place into your preheated smoker. Let cook about 4 hours or until it reaches an internal temp of 160 degrees.
  5. Remove from smoker, and place wrap on a piece of aluminum foil large enough to completely cover the roast. Add apple juice, and then seal and place back on the smoker.
  6. Once roast reaches an internal temperature of 204 degrees, remove from the smoker. Place in a pan to rest for 45 minutes. DO NOT UNWRAP until the 45 minutes is up.
  7. After resting period, you should be able to shred the meat with forks or your hands. Serve on buns or alone. Top with your favorite bbq sauce.

We have a lot more planned for recipes to get you through those summer BBQ’s and tailgate parties. We won’t even tell anyone that you didn’t come up with them by yourself because that’s what good friends do.

Like All Good Stories, It Started in a Basement…

Beer Belly Sports started when two guys from RP Broadcasting in Bemidji, MN decided to get together and discuss sports and things in the basement. Matt Geffre and Steve Papas (Steve O) started the show in February of 2017. Over the next two years, the guys would do live shows from not only Steve Oโ€™s basement, but also local bars and radio studios. 

By 2019, Steve O had moved back to Wisconsin and Matt moved to the Twin Cities. Matt continued doing the show with guest hosts, and experimented with changing the name of the show to North Star Sports Podcast in hopes of reaching a broader audience. However, Beer Belly Sports was a better fit, and after Matt moved back to Bemidji in 2021, he added Dustin Patton, Bruce Legg, and Scott Wilson to the team which has been a huge success.

In the fall of 2023, Geffre Productions Corp became the parent company of Beer Belly Sports and Beer Belly Sports Radio Network. Since then, GPC and Beer Belly Sports Radio Network have started hosting not only the BBS podcast, but also other podcasts like Wild Hockey Talk with Bardown Beauties host and Wild insider, Jessi Pierce and Purple Positivity: Vikings Talk with Justin Ekstrom. It is also the home of play by play action of Bemidji town ball baseball as well as Bemidji Blue Ox and Bemidji Bucks baseball!!
