From the kitchen of Patty Hykes

Slow-cooked, shredded meat on a bun is a dish with roots across the American heartland — part Southern barbecue tradition, part Midwestern practicality. Patty Hykes's version is notably flexible: pork, beef, or venison all work, which tells you something about a family comfortable with whatever the season or the hunt provided.
