(BBQ Guam)
Pork Balls and Firehouse Chili Beans. What else would you expect a bunch of hungry firefighters to eat? Well we cooked, we ate, we moaned. But it was good!!!
The pork balls are actually marinated pork butt cubes, cut to about one inch, marinated in Worcestershire and soy sauces and a little Cholula Hot Sauce added to round it all out. On top of this I rubbed it down with Bob-BQN's Brisket Dust Rub.
I then lightly greased up a cooking pan, added the pork and placed this in the oven at 300 F. After about 2.5 hours it is ready to serve.Here are a couple photos of the Pork Balls....

The Firehouse Chili is typical firehouse. Quick to make with a lot of flavor.
