Bourbon Peach Pulled Pork

 Bourbon Peach Pulled Pork

Over Memorial Day Weekend I decided to make pulled pork.  We live in Virginia and pulled pork is everywhere.  I'd never made it before so I figured I better get on it.   I was at Williams Sonoma and they sell a Bourbon Peach Braising Sauce that I thought would be a good flavor.  I heard pork shoulder was the way to go, but the butcher said Boston Butt was better for pulled pork. Who knew? Boston Butt it is! And the verdict was delicious!
