Pulled Pork Seasoning

 
Pulled Pork Seasoning

I most often use this on a pork loin.  Coat the entire loin in this seasoning, cook it low and slow all day, then pull it apart with forks, letting it sit in the juices so the pulled pork re-absorbs the liquid and seasonings.  We often add bbq sauce to this meat when making sandwiches, or use it as is in tacos.  

I typically cook a large loin like this, then package it in quart zip lock bags to freeze and use throughout the month.  And when I mix up the seasoning, I tend to make enough for a quart jar full.  It stores well in the pantry.  To make a quart jar, take the recipe below x4 .

Pulled Pork Seasoning Recipe

Use 1 tablespoon each of:

 cumin
 garlic powder
chili powder
 cayenne pepper
 salt
 ground pepper
  paprika

And add:
1/2 cup brown sugar

The cayenne and chili pepper will add a bit of a kick - you can use a little less of those if you don't like spice.  But if you are adding a sweeter bbq sauce to the pulled pork, it will usually balance out nicely as is.

I toss all of my ingredients into my ninja and mix them thoroughly.
