Pulled Pork 9/8 -- super moist

[Grouperman941]

Smoked a single butt this weekend. Rubbed with Tako pecan rub that I got in Alaska, sat on the counter an hour, and into the Bradley about 7 pm.

Smoked 3 1/2 hours of pecan temp on high -- kept about 220 degrees.

Around midnight, ready to come into the oven (at 225) for the night. IT 150:



At 10:15 am, the IT went from 189 to 188. Decided to give it a fork test. Wow, it was like overcooked spaghetti!
You can see the two spots I checked:



Cooled a while and pulled very nicely:



Spent the day in the fridge, but made some nice sandwiches for dinner:



Never reached 190, but this was super moist and soft. It seemed to have a lot of fat, but I only lost about 1/3 of the raw weight. Good pig I guess.

Nicely done! Butts do not always need to go to 190. Fork test is the way to go.

Gosh, that looks good.  Bet it made a great sandwich!
