Well done, sir! Great video and smoked BBQ. I've had my PBC for a couple months now and have done four cooks on it. All have turned out good, but I definitely will be trying to replicate your pork butt cook! Good stuff!!!
Great to see another Barlow video! You're right about tenderness. It's a tactile thing, not a gadget one. And the pitmaster's knowing the smoker's capabilities. From one end of the country to the other, keep smokin, brother!
This is a very well done tutorial style video! If I didn’t already know how to drum smoke pork butts, this video would be all I need to get started. Everything you need to know to make great pulled pork on drum smokers. Hey beginners, this video lesson is all you kneed to make great drum smoked barbecue pulled pork!! This video should be a hit, it will do quite well for you. Good barbecue, good video and North Carolina local adds authority and street cred. I’m very impressed with this one. I do think you’re lyin’ though, the pun was intended.
I’m so happy to hear that, Bill! That’s why we do what we do! And we want to thank you for your generous donation - that means a lot!! Have a great weekend! ✌️
That means a lot, Tim! I’m sorry we haven’t had content for your Saturday mornings recently, but we are back on track. Thank you so much for your support, always glad you’re here! 🤙
Great Video. I just tried my first "Hot and Fast" pork shoulder in the PBC last weekend. 12 pound shoulder done in 8hrs 20minutes it was great. Big fan of the PBC.
Hey great to see you back Matthew! Pulled pork is delicious and that looked great. Awesome job on the basics, hopefully more people will give it a try.
Great to see you back, Matt 👍🏼. Those looked very tasty 😋 and great smoke ring! My favorite meal I can’t eat lol 😂. Causes gout flare ups but man I love this stuff especially with some Carolina Vinegar Sauce!
I want to loan our pit barrel to our son-in-law. They want pulled pork. Problem, they want to eat at noon. He doesn't want to get up at 3 AM! Would it work to smoke the pork to 155 approx the day before. Wrap and put it in the frig. Then put it on the smoker at 8 AM?
Man it's been too long since I did a pork butt. I need an excuse to use some more of your sauce, too! I better get a butt on the pit ASAP. Smoke on 👉💨 -Jonathan
Heeyyyy there you guys are!! Well, missed Martha but good to see you Matt. Those butts looked nice bro, and I am def gonna try that BBQ sauce. Do you have any tips on how to create a thicker bark for pork butts?
Hey Larry!! Sorry for not replying sooner - it’s hard sometimes keeping up with all the comments. But anyways... For a thicker bark, you may try using more rub. I also think really letting that bark set up before you wrap will help keep it from getting washed out. Having a bit of sugar in there helps out as well, but watch those temps so ya don’t burn it!
You got it, Mike! Time and temp are important but tenderness trumps em all. Thanks so much for watching and glad you enjoyed it. Have a great weekend! 🤙
YES! 👍👍 I have a Weber, too and I follow all the exact same steps. We’re planning on making a video on how to do a pork butt on the Weber, but you’ve got the inside scoop. 😉 Let me know if you’ve got any questions. Thanks for getting in touch!

Thanks Raymond! The PBC works some magic with pork and chicken, I'm glad you're enjoying it. Smoke em if ya got em!! 👉💨
Great to see another Barlow video!

You nailed it, Joe! Thanks for the support, and smoke em if ya got em! 🤙

Hey glad to see a NC channel. Man that finished food looks amazing. Keep the videos coming.
Thanks so much! Really appreciate you coming by to check it out!
I was just wondering this morning where you guys have been! 😁
We took a 6 week trip to Florida, not a lot of opportunity for BBQ since there was only a propane grill at the condo 😅
Great Video. I just tried my first "Hot and Fast" pork shoulder in the PBC last weekend. 12 pound shoulder done in 8hrs 20minutes it was great. Big fan of the PBC.
Very well done my friend. Looked awesome!
Thank you! 🙌

Great points and information shared. Pork looks amazing and very juicy
Very nice job. Really enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much, that means a lot!
Man I love that your channel has exploded! I’m getting ready to ramp my channel back up. Been a while since I’ve done a video.
I’d love to see you get back to making videos!! Hope you are doing well, my friend! ✌️

Looking good, haven’t done a butt in my PBC yet! Good video.
Came out perfect. Very nice cook. Been a while since i made pp, about time i guess :)
Great job Mr Barlow. I love me some butt, pork butt that is.
Man it's been too long since I did a pork butt. I need an excuse to use some more of your sauce, too! I better get a butt on the pit ASAP. Smoke on 👉💨

Get on those butts lol!! Always appreciate you stopping by, Jonathan. Have a great weekend! 🤙
Have you tried hanging it vs the grates? And you're using the regular Kingsford?
Haven't tried hanging yet, but need to try it soon! And yep, just using regular ole Kingsford blue 👌
Do you add more charcoal thru out the cook to maintain heat
In general, it's not necessary. The Pit Barrel holds a lot of charcoal and can last several hours.
Heeyyyy there you guys are!! Well, missed Martha but good to see you Matt. Those butts looked nice bro, and I am def gonna try that BBQ sauce. Do you have any tips on how to create a thicker bark for pork butts?

Barlow BBQ Right on, thanks Matt!
Nice video. Way to emphasize that it's not about the time and temp it's about the tenderness. Thanks
You got it, Mike! Time and temp are important but tenderness trumps em all. Thanks so much for watching and glad you enjoyed it. Have a great weekend! 🤙
Would this be doable on a kettle grill? It's all I've got lol
YES! 👍👍 I have a Weber, too and I follow all the exact same steps. We’re planning on making a video on how to do a pork butt on the Weber, but you’ve got the inside scoop. 😉 Let me know if you’ve got any questions. Thanks for getting in touch!
Fat up or fat down.? Thanks my friend.
Fat side up or down?
Great question! I always do fat side DOWN...why? Because the side without fat will produce better bark, so I leave that side up.
