A & R BBQ Pork Shoulder Sandwich
"This is from A&R BBQ, on Elvis Presley Blvd. in downtown Memphis, Tn. They say that the secret to BBQ is the cut of meat, the heat of the coals, and the sauce. This is one of my very favorite sandwiches. It's mouth-watering, succulent, oh-so-tender! Try it! Make sure to use a really good BBQ sauce. Have this with some crispy coleslaw and a great lager beer! I love to put the coleslaw right on my sandwich! Servings will vary, as the size of buns and the quantity of meat put on the buns.I will, for the sake of notating, call it 10 to 12 servings. That may be close. Times will vary, depending on the temperature of your coals."

With no way to get around it, I had to share this during a neighborhood BBQ party, & it was a big hit!

I would like to welcome you to my recipes. I have been with Food.com since 10/05.
My beloved husband, Tom, passed away 3 years ago. My world stopped. It's taken me all this time to find my way back to life without him.
I have been so blessed to have found my second, once in a lifetime. I've met an amazing man who is so good to me.
We moved from Las Vegas, Nevada to Bullhead City, Az. in February, and we love it here.
I have worked at Bally's and Paris hotel.casinos, in Las Vegas. I have seen some very famous entertainers, including Liza Minnelli, Penn and Teller, Ray Liotta, Dr. J (Julius Erving), Frank Sinatra and his wife Barbara Marx. and many, many more.
Cooking is my passion, and I am slowly, but surely beginning to venture into the world of baking. To me, cooking is so much easier because baking is so much more exact.
I love to make Italian and Mexican food the best, followed by Chinese and last, but by far the least, good old American food! How can you beat chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and gravy?? I love to find several recipes and put my own spin on them and create a new recipe.
