Pulled Pork Eggs Benedict

  • 4 Servings
  • 30 minutes Prep Time
  • 5 hours Cook Time

Take your breakfast up a notch with tender, flavorful pulled pork. This Pulled Pork Eggs Benedict recipe is the ultimate centerpiece for a weekend brunch at home. Make the pulled pork ahead of time to cut down on the prep work. 

Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 2 Sticks Butter
  • 6 cups Chicken Broth
  • 2 Egg Yolks
  • 8 Eggs
  • 4 English Muffins
  • 2/3 cup Ketchup
  • 1 tsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 cup Pit Boss Sweet Heat Rub
  • 7 lbs. Pork Shoulder
  • To taste, Salt & Pepper

Directions

  • Fire up your Pit Boss pellet grill to SMOKE and let it run with lid open for 10 minutes then preheat to 350°F. If using a gas or charcoal grill, preheat to medium/high heat.
  • In a bowl, combine the chicken broth, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, and 4 tablespoons of Pit Boss Sweet Heat Rub. Whisk well to combine and set aside.
  • Generously season the pork shoulder with the remaining ¾ cup of Sweet Heat Rub on all sides of the pork shoulder, then place on the grill and sear on all sides until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove the pork shoulder from the grill and place in the disposable aluminum pan. Pour the chicken broth mixture over the pork shoulder. It should come about 1/3 to 1/2 way up the side of the pork shoulder. Cover the top of the pan tightly with aluminum foil.
  • Reduce the temperature of your Pit Boss grill to 250°F. Place the foil pan on the grill and grill for four to five hours, or until the pork is tender and falling off the bone.
  • Remove the pork from the grill and allow to cool slightly. Drain the liquid from the pan, reserving about a cup, then shred the pork and cover with the reserved liquid. Set aside.
  • Back inside on the stovetop, to make the hollandaise, set up a pot of boiling water and place the two yolks in a bowl that will sit on top of the boiling water without touching it.
  • While whisking constantly, heat the yolks over the boiling water until they thicken to make a ribbon-like stream when lifted with the whisk.
  • Melt the butter in a measuring cup. Place the bowl with the egg yolks on a flat surface where it wont slide or move.
  • While whisking briskly and constantly, slowly drizzle the butter into the eggs. The sauce should thicken as more butter is incorporated into the yolks.
  • Season with lemon juice and salt and pepper.
  • Fill a sauce pot 4” up the side with water and bring to a boil. Add vinegar and salt if desired and poach the 8 eggs.
  • Toast the English muffins in the toaster and build the benedicts.
  • Top the benedicts with hollandaise and a sprinkle of Sweet Heat. Enjoy!
