I don't think more cooking already toughened meat will make it awesome. But, you can help it... I've helped it when I cooked country style pork ribs too fast. The biggest single factor in that rescue was to cut the pork very thinly, this is easiest when cold, like refrigerated cold. Then when you re-cook/re-heat, it only has a small thickness to go through, and it makes shredding/mauling, easier.
THEN, the lesson I learned is that I don't have enough patience to prepare, cook while watching, pork butt. That is something that needs to be put on super low, then walk the hell away and do something else.
Like the olympics. or go to bed. use a crockpot. falling apart tender does not happen from getting off work to dinnertime the same night, neverever.
Doesn't mean you can't have tasty pork covered in tasty bbq sauce, it just won't be lovely shredded pork.
