Recipe - Renowned Mr. Brown

One fourth cup Ground black pepper
One fourth cup Paprika
One fourth cup Turbinado sugar
2 tablespoon Salt
2 teaspoon Dry mustard
1 teaspoon Cayenne
1 68 lb. Boston Pork Butt

In old Southern slang, "Mr. Brown" in the dark outside part of barbecued
pork, usually the sholder.

The night before you plan to barbecue, combine the rub ingredients in a
small bowl. Massage the pork well with about half the rub. Transfer the
pork to a plastic bag, and refrigerate it overnight.

Before you begin to barbecue, remove the pork from the refrigerator. Pat
down the butt with another coating of rub. Let the pork sit a room
temperature for about 45 minutes.

Prepare the smoker for barbecuing, bringing the temperature to 200220 F.

If you plan to baste the pork, stir any remaining rub into the mop (see
Southern Sop recipe) ingredients in a saucepan and warm the mixture over
low heat.

Transfer the pork to the smoker and cook it for about 1 One half hours per
pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 170180 F. Mop the pork
about once an hour in a woodburning pit, or as apporpiate for your style
smoker.

Remove the pork from the smoker and let ot sit for about 15 minutes, until
cool enough to handle. Pull off chinks of the meat, amd either shred or
chop them as you wish. Make sure each serving has some of the darker,
chewier Mr. Brown along with the lighter interior meat. If you wish, serve
the pork with Golden Mustard Barbecue Sauce, Carolina Red, or Vaunted
Vinegar Sauce.

NOTES : Above rub is called Southern Succor Rub.
