Two pork roast smoking been in 5 1/2 hours and 4 hours of smoke,but bad weather in moving in, gees it is July in OKlahoma it does not rain this time of the year, any way I have put the pork in the over at 215 degrees, with pans of water under them. Is there something else I shoudl do to them or use a different temp or anything?

Should work fine.
I put mine in a foil pan with a little liquid in the bottom and a foil lid over the top. Does soften the bark some though.

You did good.

Pretend the oven is your Bradley and monitor the IT.

Good Call.

The roast are on racks not in the pans and the pans of water are on the over rack below and pork and it will drip in the pans.

That will work well. May have a bit of a mess on the oven racks to clean but the meat will come out great.

I can answer that one. You will be at home and after smelling those butts cooking all night you will be starving when you wake up.

We would have known you were fibbing if you had said you didn't stop for a taste test. Always better to fess up. :)
