  6 cups water, 1/4 cup salt, 1/8 cup sugar, 1 oz whiskey, bourbon or rum , 2 garlic cloves, Few sprigs parsley, Sprig of rosemary, 7 whole peppercorns, 1 bay leaf
• Gently put the roast into the brine and refrigerate for 6-8 hours
  2-3 lb pork shoulder or Buttroast
• Remove roast from the brine, pat dry with paper towels. Rub all sides with vegetable oil, then a generous sprinkling of Monsoon Coast BBQ & Roast Rub. Let rest at room temperature about 1 hour.
  2-3 tsp vegetable oil, 1 tbsp Monsoon Coast BBQ & Roast Rub
• Meanwhile, soak woodchips in water for 30 minutes.
  2 cups wood chips
• Pre-heat the BBQ to medium heat. Place roast on the grill and cook about 5 minutes per side until all sides are nicely browned; 20 minutes in total.
• Drain chips and place 1 cup of chips on a piece of aluminum foil, wrap loosely and puncture holes in the top of the packet. Repeat with the second cup of chips.
• Turn off the burner under the pork leaving the other burner on medium-high. Place the first packet of wood chips on the lit burner. Close the lid and smoke the pork for about 60 minutes. Refresh the wood chips after the smoking has subsided from the first packet of chips.
• Meanwhile, preheat oven to 300°F. Remove pork from the BBQ and place in a small roasting pan with a tight-fitting lid (or cover tightly with foil).
• Put ½ cup water in the bottom of the pan and roast for 2.5 to 3 hours or until the meat is tender and falling apart.
• When cool enough to handle, Pull pork apart.
• Serve on a bun with some of the juice from the roasting pan or your favourite BBQ sauce.
