Hello everyone;
      I made my first pulled pork in my OBS and it was a total success.First I should say that I have the OBS with a PID.This combination makes smoking foolproof.This is my fourth smoke with the Bradley,and I am still amazed at how well it works.The Bradley people have a great product.It performs perfectly.I was a little concerned with the long smoke I would have to do,but that proved to be no concern at all.I had a 9 lb. butt,and smoked with apple and hickory alternating each for a total of 4 hours,at a temperature of 210 degrees.The PID holds this right on.I started at 7:00 pm.At 11:00 I emptied the water and added a larger tray of water and went to bed.Finally at 3:00 in the afternoon,I took it out and wrapped in aluminum foil and towel for 1 1/2 hours.I did not think it would take as long as it did,but it had an internal temp of 185 degrees.The meat pulled apart with no effort and came clean off the bone.I would put the pulled pork equal to or better than any restaurant I have ever eaten in.I vacuum sealed the leftovers and froze them.I just can't say enough good about the Bradley.

The rub I used was taken from "How to make competition ribs" but I added mustard powder and chili powder,and eliminated the cayenne pepper.I am hungry again!The butt came from Walmart,and the fat totally melted through,leaving only meat.It was not dried out,and it was tender.The credit goes to Bradley!

GREAT JOB!!!

I just bought a half dozen butts the local butcher had on sale for .99lb.

I will go back after I get paid and get another load. Dont see it that often around me for that price like in the old days!!!!

joerom

Thanks all,
         I think I paid about $1.50 a lb for mine,but still a good price when you consider that the end result is awesome.I think I will do ribs again,that is my favorite,with fries and beans!

Everytime I get on this site I get hungry.

And when you figure our local take out is $10.99/lb for pulled pork...

$1.50/lb *2 = $3.00/lb + pucks and electric ....


And mine is better than the take out place.
