  • 2 Tablespoons oil (optional if searing)
  • 1 tbsp Brown Sugar

  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Cumin
  • 1 tsp Kosher Salt

  • BBQ Sauce, to taste

Directions

  1. Trim Villari Prime Pork Butt of excess fat and cut into 4 pieces.
  2. Combine spices in a small bowl and rub all over the Villari Prime Pork Butt. (This can be done the night before).
  3. Sear (optional): Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a Dutch oven pot over medium-high heat. Add the meat and sear for a few seconds on all sides.
  4. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Pour coke around the pork in the Dutch oven pot. Cover pot with lid and cook for 3 hours.
