My son wants to have some friends over for an all night LAN gaming party.

What does he want to eat?

Pizza? NO

Burgers? NO

Pulled Pork? YES (That's MY boy!)

Just proves you brought him up right FLBR!

Nice looking butts, your son and his friends will love it.

Looks like you need to weld some 1/2" rebar to the front of those racks so they can hold the weight. Beauty again FLB as always.

I think I may found the upper load limit in the OBS.

after 20 hours, the IT's are only in the 150F range.

Moving the whole lot into the convection oven set to 275F

This is some serious smoke porn! Way to go. NCAA tournament starts next week fire that baby up! My next big smoke event won't be until the Masters Golf Tournament in April. It should be a big event this year if El Tigre shows up. :o

The molasses slather + Jans rub did not turn out as well as I wanted.

Disclaimer - this was still way better pulled pork than I've had in any commercial facility.

Honestly it needs a little work. I think there was a comedy of errors that contributed to the result I had.

1. I think the rub had too much salt in it for a molasses slather - it drew moisture out of the meat and washed some of the molasses off. There was a lot in the bottom of the tub.

2. Getting home expecting to see 200F on the butts and getting ready for FTC, instead getting 150F and having guests coming in about 2 hours. I cranked up the convection oven to 275F which got them moving. The butts had been in the smoker 20 hours at this point. We cranked it to 400 for about 20 minutes to get the corn muffins done, but that was after I had pulled the first two.

The bark was kind of hard, almost like deep fried. kinda sweet, but I think that it was more a result of the molasses and the convection than the smoker.

It has potential, but I need to tweak it a little. The Mrs. agrees.

Thanks for the feedback FLB

FLBR,
I'm sorry to learn the molasses slather didn't turn out well for you. Both CRG and you had mixed results using it. Makes me wonder if it's worth it altough Jan and I were pleased with the outcome. I have no explanation of what may have caused the problems. Perhaps just a difference in personal taste and preference.

Sorry everyone.

That's too bad it didn't turn out, the pics sure made it look good.
