Smoked Pulled Pork (5 lb) — Montgomery Meats
Five pounds of pork shoulder, smoked until it gives up the fight and shreds clean. This isn't pulled pork you finish on the stove or doctor up with a bottle of sauce — it arrives fully cooked, hand-shredded, and ready to eat. The smoke does the talking. The seasoning — salt, paprika, brown sugar, garlic, onion — just gets out of the way.
The shoulder is smoked low and slow, then hand-pulled into loose, bite-ready strands that hold the bark and the tenderness in equal measure. Vacuum-sealed and frozen immediately after processing, so what you thaw is exactly what came out of the smokehouse. Reheat on the stovetop, in the oven, or in the microwave — it doesn't matter. The smoke is already locked in.
Pile it on a bun. Build a taco. Fork it straight out of the pan at midnight. This is a five-pound block of meal prep that works for a backyard cookout, a weeknight dinner, or a tailgate where you want to show up with something real. Pair it with Old Major smoked bacon and eggs for a breakfast spread that actually earns it, or keep it company in the freezer alongside hams and roasts for the weeks ahead.

FAQ
Is this pulled pork fully cooked?
Yes. It arrives fully cooked and shredded. You're just reheating, not cooking from raw. Stovetop over medium heat with a splash of water or broth takes about 10 minutes. Oven at 325°F covered in foil takes about 20–25 minutes. Microwave works fine for single portions.
Is there sauce included?
No. This ships without sauce, which is intentional — it gives you full control over how you finish it. The pork has enough smoke and seasoning to stand on its own, or you can add whatever regional style you prefer.
How does it ship and how long does it keep?
Ships frozen and vacuum-sealed. Keep it frozen until you're ready to use it — it'll hold for several months in the freezer. Once thawed, use within 3–4 days and keep refrigerated.
Is this sweet or savory?
The seasoning profile leans savory with a mild sweetness from the brown sugar — enough to complement the smoke without tipping into barbecue candy territory. There's no heat. It's a clean, straightforward smoked pork flavor.
Where does the pork come from?
Processed by Montgomery Meats in Ladoga, Indiana, a facility that sources from Indiana farms raising pasture-raised animals without hormones or antibiotics. [VERIFY: Confirm specific sourcing details directly with Montgomery Meats for accuracy.]
