One thing I like about this community is most of us have a love for food and cannabis. Trying to brainstorm ideas for other uses of hemp, I thought smoking a pork butt with hemp infused smoking media was worth a shot.
Originally I wanted to do this with just stalks, not buds. But in a logistical dilemma, I decided to use some hemp buds that went a little hot this year and aren’t worth much.
So i took 14 ounces of fresh frozen hemp buds and soaked them in water with wild grapevine chunks and apple wood chips. The apple wood and grapevine are what i usually use and will provide some safety net on the taste if the hemp smoke is just not appealing. I cook on charcoal the old school way, no electric bbq here.
I’ve got a nice pork Boston butt on now at temps between 200 F and 225 F.
My backyard now smells like Woodstock lol, pretty pungent weed smoke smell, hope the neighbors are cool🤣
Should take another 5 to 6 hours to finish. Will post an update on the taste results when finished
Got some real gassy Glue terps that I think would taste incredible in smoke pulled pork. Might need to dedicate a ML for culinary science. Just need a smoker
Realistically it would probably only be any good if you added them to a sauce or something after. Any gassy smelling cannabis terps I’ve tried get royally fucked by heat
6.5 hours later and I’ve reached 160F internal temp. Letting it rest for 45 to 60 minutes then picking and saucing afterwards. Smells great, ready to try it out!
