Pulled Pork Smashed Burgers?

Anyone ever seen this before? I have used ground beef and pulled pork to create patties, but I have never done just the pork.

I figured it is worth sharing. Credit: MaxtheMeatGuy

Now that's an interesting idea! I will have to give this a try next time I make pulled pork. Would be another good tool for the war chest to surprise folks with....

I have ground the pork shoulder and made paddies pre-smoke...very tasty!

topped with bacon jam....very yummy!

I'll be trying this for sure at some point this summer. Thanks for posting it.

I've been doing this for a few years. The key to getting the right texture is taking the pork butt a little past your normal finishing temp, I usually take mine to 210°, to get the softer 'mushy' feel, doing this helps them hold together better when smashing.

Pop one on a toasted bun with some pepperjack, pickled onions, bread and butter pickles, and some spicy bbq sauce....that's some good eating!
