BBQ Pulled Pork

We have a good friend who, every summer, invites everyone over for a pulled pork feast. The pork is attentively prepared over several days and served with a homemade spicy barbecue sauce with all the fixins, including homemade tortilla bread.

His pulled pork is so delicious that, until recently, I never attempted to make it myself – I simply waited for his invitation!
