MUSTARD SANDWICH


We cooked a picnic shoulder low and slow just for this sandwich. I will not tell you how tender and smoky with a meat candy bark this roast turned out. The home made roll was not just soft and delicious but just a platform to support our home made mustard. The green blurb in the corner of this image is a home cured pickle but once again mustard is the star today.


This flavor of our mustard was a 'Mendecino Brand' style mustard. It was sweet with a large amount of brown sugar. Only yellow mustard seeds were used. Apple cider vinegar would add its contribution with a mellow tang to this melody of flavors. The texture was course with rustic flair. A slight heat from the mustard seeds gently awakened your palette. This was an epic sandwich. Mustard was the star with an all-star back up cast. This sandwich was very special with our home made mustard.

  6. Three Dogs BBQ and Big Dude,Thanks, With my new 14.5 WSM it is so easy to cook a pork shoulder with great results. I put it on when I get up and it is ready in time for dinner. The best part is the sandwiches the following days. Oh Yeah!!!!
