For a pulled pork barbecue recipe you need a
meat smoker
which is an indirect method of cooking as opposed to the barbecue grill where the coals are directly heating the meat and this is required because the trick is to cook the pork slowly.
Pulled pork is traditionally served as a sandwich with
coleslaw
and a barbecue sauce. For both these latter two ingredients you can either make or buy. If you’re into homemade the I’ve got bucket loads of
barbecue sauce recipes

Ingredients:-
Pork shoulder
White bread buns
Coleslaw
Barbecue Sauce!
Method:-
Place the pork on the grid of your smoker and cook for 90 to 120 minutes per pound weight of meat at 98°C or 215°F. (A range of 93°C – 110°C or 200°F – 230°F is acceptable for smoking). Allow to cool for 60 minutes because this helps the pulling apart, and then serve up.
Pull it apart, shred it or chop it on a white bread bun leaving the diner to add the sauce of choice and the coleslaw.
This is such a traditional way to cook pork you've just got to give it a go - believe me it's really worth the time and effort.
