Gonna start a shoulder smoke tonite and hopefully have some good pulled pig for the Steelers game tomorrow. I brined it in the Sauce Bauce's recipe for 8 hours, then applied the rub! Here it is getting ready to go in!

looking good so far, cook at 220 - 225  smoke with hickory mesquite oak or maple, no more then 4 hours, till an IT of 190- 200 , start checking at 185 F to  see if it is  ready  to be  pulled, if it  pulls easy then  pull it,, if not wait another 5 degrees and  try again.... once  done you  can  place into a crock  pot  with apple  juice to  keep warm and introduce moisture back into the meat,

keep the top  vent  open..  good  luck on the  smoke and  game

Thank you! I like the crock pot idea.

Looks like it will be good for the game tomorrow.

Update! Just got through the stall and at 178 degrees! It got colder than expected overnight dropping my box to 180 while I slept. I got it back to 220 at 5am. Pictures to follow

Here it is 17 hours later at 195 degrees. It is now foiled and toweled in the cooler! The fork spun like it was in butter!! I can't wait!!

Bacon is the Crack Cocaine of the Food World.

Be careful about calling yourself and EXPERT! An ex is a has-been, and a spurt is a drip under pressure!

Here's the final result, topped with coleslaw and a Carolina sauce. (Ignore the fine china it's on)
