Pulled Pork Tacos on Kamado Joe

[@SmokyRibsBBQ]

Troy when I seen you put the slaw on the pork, and then topped it with the pineapple and brown sugar, I knew right at that moment, that was going to ROCK! My mouth was seriously beginning to water! Oh man, I could go for a half of dozen right here right now!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Smoky Ribs Thanks much Rus!!! This was the best pork taco I've ever eaten buddy!! Karen made the coleslaw homemade, so it was kicked up a few notches. And pork & pineapple just go hand in hand, then you add some brown sugar to the mix and Wow!!!! This taco did Rock!! Thanks again Rus!!!

[@TexasStyleCuisine]

Sweet looking taco. Nice job putting it together.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Texas Style Cuisine Thanks, Karen really put together some fine sides for these tacos and the pineapple sauce was da bomb!!!

[@tangojoe9694]

Team Work - that is what is awesome! Fantastic cook Troy, digging the way you prepared the meat and then taco-ed it up! Right on!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Tango Joe Hey Joe, just thought I'd try something a little different. The tacos were out of this world good!!! Hope you have a wonderful week brother!!

[@BenThomasBigt]

Wow, another amazing cooking video !! That looked excellent !!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Ben Thomas Howdy Ben, glad you enjoyed the video. I have never tasted a taco as good as this one was. It was pure heaven buddy!!! Thanks for watching!

[@LyndsayWellsTheKitchenWitch]

I am starving watching this! The saffron rice looked wonderful too - and your puppy, so sweet!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Lyndsay Wells, The Kitchen Witch Hi Lyndsay, my dogs are never far away when I'm cooking and tasting! LOL Thanks so much for watching!

[@getoutandgrill]

Beautiful shanks..That was a great meal.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Mother's BBQ Hey Chris, I appreciate that brother! These pulled pork tacos were amazing!

[@AussieAngeS]

Darn it I'm always starving with these awesome videos! Man that looks killer Troy. Awesome tacos I love it

[@TROYCOOKS]

Hey Angie, thanks so much!! It was a terrific taco and the slaw & pineapple sauce Karen made totally rocked this dish. It was awesome!! Have a great week Hun!!!!

[@sneakeey1]

T-Roy when you pulled to bones out and crunched on the skin...I had to stop drinking (briefly...lol)! Hearing Karen in THX Stereo from the background cracked me up! There is nothing better than a supportive film crew...lol! When you held up the shank I was in meat envy...lol! Great cook and great video! Thanks for sharing this my friend!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Thanks very much Phil, I like it when Karen starts hollering stuff in the background too. It really keeps me on my toes!!! I'm sure you know what I mean? LOL That pork was amazing with Tango Spice on it and a hint of smoke. And the slaw and pineapple/brown sugar sauce Karen made just sent this taco over the top!!! It was mighty fine my friend!! Wish I could have shared it with you!! Thanks so much for watching Phil. Hope you have a wonderful week my friend!!

[@Easymealpreprecipes]

MMMMM! This video just made me so hungry, thanks a lot Troy! :) Nom nom nom

[@TROYCOOKS]

Thanks Steph, it was some good eating for sure! Have a wonderful week!!!

[@BigMeatSunday]

Brilliant idea T Roy!~ I make a mean Veal shank that way ! cheers buddy!

[@TROYCOOKS]

BigMeat Sunday I bet your Veal shanks are to die for John! Thanks brother!

[@NoHippieBBQCooking]

BigMeat Sunday I have done shanks, but I need to try veal. Thanks for the idea

[@kendarnell]

Looks good Troy!!! Keep up the videos!!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Thank Ken!! I was checking out your recipe using the Jalapeno BBQ sauce today. I really need to make that sooner than later. Have a great week buddy!!!

[@redshift690]

Awe man that!...And I love your outback...you have an amazing home friend. =)

[@TROYCOOKS]

***** Thank you very much. I'm sure you'll be seeing a lot more of my backyard in the coming months. I'll be firing up my grills just about every weekend!

[@Juanelo1946]

T-Roy, I have to agree that those pork shanks were "super gorgeous!" When you added the pineapple and juice, you made something very close to tacos al pastor! Oh I want a few of your tacos!!! Thanks for sharing this not-too-difficult recipe my friend! Outstanding!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Juanelo1946 Hey John, I wish you would do some grilling outside. Heck, even grilled fish is great!! Karen is learning how to grill on the new Kamado Joe. Maybe you can teach Miss Lulu how to use the grill? She will be putty in your hands my friend!! LOL

[@Juanelo1946]

T-Roy, right now I have only a tiny ELECTRIC outdoor grill! I feel like a total novice next to the large group of experts like you who do such a great job of grilling, smoking and barbecuing... with real charcoal! I have so much to learn! I did a few videos of me cooking fish on my little grill. If you have time on your hands, here are a couple of them. Please don't feel you need to watch them!!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXfEiqeHm9qFY7c and kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5ewhqSrpc-osKs

[@TROYCOOKS]

Juanelo1946 Both of those were great videos!!! See, you need to do more of that outdoor cooking stuff. I also enjoyed seeing you cruising around in that boat thingy.

[@Juanelo1946]

T-Roy, thanks so much for taking the time to watch those videos! I sure do appreciate your support and encouragement my friend! I'll try some more outdoor cooking!

[@Onekitchenblogfood]

You make me so hungry Troy! :-D That pulled pork in those tacos... oh hell yes!

[@TROYCOOKS]

One Kitchen - A Thousand Ideas Hell yes!!! You know good food when you see it Julia! LOL Thanks a million!!

[@TheMayhem15]

Awesome T roy, just looking at some of ya older vids, I heard the call from the cheap seats :) So Good lol

[@doublejbbq42]

[@daphydoo10]

[@TROYCOOKS]

daphydoo10 Hey Daphydoo, where you been hiding? Great to hear from you again. Thanks for checking out the video!!! Take care!

[@mgmcd1]

I got those pork shanks from Lobel’s. They were A.MAY.ZING! Getting some more to try this recipe.

[@SmokeyGoodness]

I couldn't have said it any better than Rus did, T-Roy. 2:19 am and I'm jonesin' for that taco, or maybe 5 of them!

[@TROYCOOKS]

SmokeyGoodness It was a delicious taco Dan. I actually liked the flavor better than pork butt! Good stuff man!!

[@cookwithmeat]

Awesome looking pork Tacos, T-Roy! Makes me hungry - again ;)

[@TROYCOOKS]

COOK WITHMEAT Thanks, these were the best pulled pork Tacos that I've ever had!!! I appreciate you watching!

[@NoHippieBBQCooking]

Always a great video..I hear you have a visitor coming soon. I NEED to see a video on that. Tacos are always good. As a matter of fact I have some short ribs that I smoked braising that I may use for tacos. Your channel rocks

[@TROYCOOKS]

Thanks very much Lyle, I'll be doing some short ribs very soon too. Probably won't be doing tacos with them though, but I bet that would be really good eating. Yeah man, Bubba will be here along with James from Aim'em & Claim'em. James lives about an hour South of me, so I'm sure we'll be doing more cooks together in the future. I can't wait to meet Bubba!!! LOL It should be a great time with some good Texas BBQ. I'm hoping I can get some nice footage of our get-together. Thanks again brother!!!

[@NoHippieBBQCooking]

I would pay for that, so please remember to tape it

[@TROYCOOKS]

No Hippie BBQ & Cooking Yeah, it will be taped, but not sure how much of it we can show on YT. LOL

[@17025601]

Gourmet taco!!! Love the slaw and pineapple, Karen. Watch out, Mad Max!

[@TROYCOOKS]

GizmoBee1702 Ha!!! Good one Gizmo!! Yeah, the tacos were fantastic! Thanks for watching!!

[@HerbieGrillt]

[@urtoo2311]

Aww looks like that girlie got a trim? Wow the slaw and saffron rice, not what I expected but, sounds delicious. I'm for Anything Sriracha

[@TROYCOOKS]

T Lo Hey T Lo, Lucy did get a trim and so did Buddy. They got their Summertime cut! LOL Karen whipped up a great batch of slaw for these tacos. Everything tasted wonderful together. Thanks for watching!!!

[@CentralTexasGrilling]

Mighty mighty fine taco if I do say so myself brotha! BAAM!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Aim'em and Claim'em Smokers These tacos were outstanding James. You can't go wrong with Lobel's Berkshire Pork and a Pineapple/Brown Sugar sauce on top! Thanks brother!!!

[@tomstestkitchen]

Looks really good Troy, putting that big Joe to work ASAP.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Yeah buddy, I'm loving that Kamado Joe. That's a cooking machine!!! Thanks Tom!!!

[@crisworkizer1523]

Brother T- Roy,once again thinking out of the box.those cook way faster than a pork butt for some quick pulled pork tacos.actually I never checked out pork shanks.my EX and her Itallian family always did Lamb shanks.so thats what we did... new direction thanks you two .

[@TROYCOOKS]

Cris Workizer Hey Cris, lamb shanks should work well using this method. Those were the best pulled pork tacos that I've ever had!!! I appreciate you watching!

[@cooknonthebrink7965]

Bone pulled right out, that's kind a like a dinner bell! Great looking pork smoke buddy.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Cook'n on the brink Yeah, the pork shanks were really good. I actually liked their flavor better than pork butt. Good stuff!!! Thanks for watching!

[@MindCalmingSounds]

How are you liking your Kamado? Your tacos were great! Liked the coleslaw and pineapple idea.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Smoking Bullet Thanks, these were some excellent tacos! The pineapple and slaw really paired well with that smoked pork. I'm loving the Kamado! It is very efficient and operates a lot like my WSM. I think it's about time to fire up the Wichita though. She's feeling neglected!! LOL

[@ImjustKelly73]

Looks good Troy! Hope y'all had a Happy Easter, (Resurrection Sunday!)! TFS & Tc :D

[@TROYCOOKS]

Kelly Carpenter Hi Kelly, we had a nice relaxing Easter Sunday. Thank you very much and I wish you a wonderful week!!!

[@ImjustKelly73]

T-ROY COOKS Thanks Troy! The same to y'all! :) Tc.

[@fritziscookinagain9880]

Hey T-Roy !!! Hey to Karen !!! Hey to Miss Lucy and Good ole Buddy Dog !!! The Pool is Lookin Inviting !!! LOL ... The ole Joe is ROCKIN Brother !!! Oh my my my Perfection , those Shanks Look OVER the Top NEXT Level Yummy !!! Your Pulled Pork Tacos ROCK !!! Love ya Brother ...

[@TROYCOOKS]

Fritz is Cookin Again Hey Fritz, thanks much brother!!! Yeah man, I'm diggin' that new Big Joe. It does a fine job smoking up that meat. The shanks were over the top!!! This was the finest pulled pork taco I've ever had!!! Give ole Sarge a pat on the head for me and tell Momma I said hello!!! Luv ya!!!

[@eltonsbbq-pit]

I have no words for this... Man that looked good.. But i cat get Lobell over here in Norway but might get some good quality shanks though.. Definitely gonna do this one on my WSM Troy! Cheers Buddy!

[@TROYCOOKS]

I hope you do try pork shanks done on the WSM. These shanks made probably the best pulled pork taco that I've ever tasted. Of course, you've gotta have some slaw and pineapple/brown sugar to go with it. Hehehee Thanks Kjetil, I appreciate you brother!!! Keep the smoke rollin' in Norway!!!

[@SouthernCoastalCookingTM]

Great job man, you got my mouth watering i know that lobel's pork had to be off the chain good. Hey now tell me about this Schrichi Powder, i love the sauce but have never had the powder

[@TROYCOOKS]

Southern Coastal Cooking ™ Yeah, those pork shanks were off the chain Joe. Those were the best pulled pork tacos I've ever had! I just started seeing that Sriracha powder a few weeks ago at my local HEB. It is made by McCormick and I found it with the other spices. It is pretty strong stuff, so it doesn't take much in a recipe.

[@Booger500us]

[@TROYCOOKS]

Booger500us Hey Booger, I was hoping for some cracklin's and that's why I raised the temp to 350F at the end of the cook. Worked out great!!! Thanks babe!!!

[@selkirkian]

Holy shit looks amazing

[@TROYCOOKS]

Globby Glab Nice color, huh? LOL These pulled pork tacos were the best pork tacos I've ever had! Just thought I'd try something a little different and it worked out fantastic!!! I appreciate you watching!

[@moocowdad]

Getting near time for you to do some more cannonballs (responsibly of course) into that new pool! Cheers Troy.-Dave

[@TROYCOOKS]

Moo Cow Hi Dave, you got that right buddy!!! Bubba is coming to visit me this weekend and I'm hoping my pool will be warm enough to use. I still can't use the heater for the pool because I have to wait 30 days to let the new plaster cure. Bummer!!!

[@TeamSurfinSapo]

Very nice!!! I'm going to tell Cooking with Surfinsapo abouth this and Thomason Landscaping PLUs... There are leaves in the rocks....I can listen to your shows while I work too bro...

[@TROYCOOKS]

TeamSurfinSapo You are too much Sapo!! Wishing you a safe and happy day brother!

[@dannyjones1205]

Hey T-Roy. With summer on the way is there any chance you can perhaps do a video on making some sort of summer drink, like a smoothie or maybe a cocktail. All the best.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Danny Jones Hey Danny, that's a great idea!!! I'll put that on my "To-do" list. Much appreciated bro!!!

[@dannyjones1205]

That's great to hear. Looking forward to it. Happy cooking!

[@theguccipilot]

Troy, congrats on the Lobels sponsorship. After three years, hat in hand, I'm still asking for a summer sausage recipe. I purchased a grinder per your recommendation on your chili recipe. Any chance we can see your grinder in the future?

[@TROYCOOKS]

theguccipilot Man, I keep forgetting that I have that grinder!!! I'll have to find my sausage book and see if there is a good recipe in it for summer sausage. I still want to make some boudin also!! If I don't do a sausage making video in the next few months, please PM me and remind me! Thanks!

[@MrBucidart]

Wait,..... there is another use for pork shank besides cooking in a pot of beans!!!! T_Roy, good looking cook, The pineapple topping took it over the edge.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Yep, it's not just for beans any more!!! This was top notch Joe. Hope you give it a try brother!!! Thanks so much for watching!!

[@deeandlee745]

I enjoy all of your videos, great tips and entertainment. Thanks! Mike D

[@TROYCOOKS]

Mike Daugherity Jr. Hey Mike, thanks buddy!! I appreciate your support and glad you enjoy watching me cook. Have a great week!!

[@ThomasonLandscaping]

T-ROY COOKS RESPONSIBLY!!!

[@PopleBackyardFarm]

yum!

[@m2tno]

Wow! Now that looks good. I could smell it through my screen. Hope you don't mind if I use my #Green_Egg instead of the KJoe. #Lobels for sure!

[@TROYCOOKS]

m2tno Thank you very much! These pork shanks were really tasty and made some great tacos. And the BGE and KJ are cousins, it doesn't bother me a bit if you cook these on your BGE. Let me know what you think of the flavors!!!

[@chickendawg88]

Hey man, do you have a good cole slaw recipe? I have some leftover pulled pork I smoked I need to eat up.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Scott Byer Hey Scott, Karen made the coleslaw, but I think she just winged it. Don't think she used a recipe, but I will ask her.

[@MrMegaFredZeppelin]

Lobel's has the "BEST" meat ever. We just tried the Cowboy Steak and Wagyu Tri-Tip and it was beyond amazing :) :) :) @ exactly 4:59 you can see faces on those Shanks, check it out and pause @ 4:59 :) @ 5:10 I hear Karen saying SO GOOD :) Karen's Coleslaw looks excellent :) Right into my CULINARY playlist. Thank you Troy :) ROCK ON!!!!!!!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Hey Fred, You have too much time on your hands dude!!! I did pause it and you are correct, but it takes a keen eye to spot that. Of course, I placed those shanks in those exact positions, had just enough heat on each of them to make them look that way, and had the camera at THE Exact angle needed to view those shanks so that you would see faces. See, there's a lot that goes on behind the scenes that most people don't realize!! LOL Thanks Fred!!!

[@MrMegaFredZeppelin]

You are welcome :) I have a weird knack for stuff like that LOL :) I also tend to take things literally :) Take care Troy :) ROCK ON!!!!!

[@boscopit]

Howdy from Texas Keith!!! Thanks so much brother. This dish totally Rocked!!! Nothing wrong with a little Pig skin crisped up on the Kamado Joe!! LOL I hope you do a Tex-Mex version of Lamb. I'm telling you Keith, that butterflied Lamb was the best Lamb that I've ever had!!! That Tex-Mex rub and the Lime with Cilantro sent that Lamb into next week!!! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Lamb loves a little Tex-Mex!!! You'll see brother!!! LOL

[@TROYCOOKS]

keith bettag Ohhh, I love it when Keith gets an idea in his head and goes for it. This should be good!!! I wish you much success on your idea Keith!!!

[@lumpyq6385]

That was real nice, those Dogs of yours weren't going anywhere while you were prepping that. They have good taste. I am in the market for a new Cooker, I like that Kamado. The problem I am having is their are so many out there I can't decide. I am from the Northeast as you know, and we have always done it different up here. My 2 Smokers are Gas Fired however I do convert one to Charcoal for shorter Cooks. I could use some help in making a decision, I only want to buy one more that will fit my needs. HELP!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Lumpy Q Hi Lumpy, you're right about my dogs. They are always around when I'm cooking and tasting! As for a good choice for a new cooker, it really depends on what you mainly are going to be cooking? Send me a PM and give me more info about what your needs are. I'll give you my advice for what it's worth! LOL

[@lumpyq6385]

Thanks Troy.

[@TeamSurfinSapo]

I think I saw a Fly @7:40

[@TROYCOOKS]

TeamSurfinSapo Hmmm, I don't recall there being any flies in the house? If there were, I'm sure Buddy got it! He likes those little protein snacks. LOL Thanks for the shares Lyndon!

[@transport21]

4 hours?? Why sooooo long?

[@unknownbogey1539]

Great looking flavor profile..I know that was good..Don't try to pass that grill off as yours, we all know it's really Karens'.LOL.. She should put up a video on how she makes you scrub it clean after each use. HeHeHe...

[@TROYCOOKS]

unknown bogey You got that right Glen. It is Karen's Kamado Joe. She's been cooking on it and getting used to it. I'm sure she'll be using it in a video real soon! As for cleaning it, it is self cleaning. Just heat it up like a self cleaning oven and let it burn off all the junk. Easy peezy!!! LOL Hope you are doing well my friend! Have a great weekend!!
