Barbecue Cookout Pulled Pork

My brother created this recipe a few years ago. It's great for family gatherings, games days, or make-ahead meals. Many of the ingredients (garlic, chili powder, worcestershire) are easily adjustible, so feel free to modify to your particular taste. NOTE: This recipe does not resemble - nor was it intended to resemble - the style of pulled pork made in North Carolina.
