200 seems to be the magic numberPut my 5.7lb in at 9am, 8hrs later it's 190. Foil at 172.
Don't know what temp to pull off the snoker and start rest. 200? 205?

Take Gary's word for it over mine
Around the 205 º let it rest a bit, save the juices, slide out the blade bone and pull. Zip lock bag till tomorrow. Warm the pork and juice up, pour the juice back in with the pork and you have got a meal.
Good Luck
Gary
This is a good tip, I'll be trying it on my butt.
Hey Duke I wasn't trying to contradict you, In fact it could be 200 º get a hold of the blade bone and wiggle it if it feels like it is loose and ready to slide out your good.
Sorry
Gary
I pulled it at 205, I wrapped in blanket in cooler was there anything your supose to do before putting in cooler?Sorry about being AWOL for a couple hours, guys, but one of the things nice about this forum----There's always some experienced guys who can step into the middle of a smoke!!!
I had to leave & pull my Prime Rib & eat some!
I try to shoot for 205°, but 203° and 208° is always good----Like Gary said, "If the bone pulls out easily, it's generally good to go".

That's Great. Only thing I'd do before wrapping it & putting it in a cooler is to pour off the juice into a container for the fridge first, so it can start separating.I pulled it at 205, I wrapped in blanket in cooler was there anything your supose to do before putting in cooler?
Going to let sit in cooler for an hour or two, pull and eat and watch fight.

Nice work, I'd normally be jealous, but I have some of this waiting on me too!Pulled it. It was ready...and delicious! Thanks for everything guys! Here's a bite all of you!
Can juices only be collected when you foil the butt during the smoke? I had a drip tray under mine and poured the drippings into a bowl to separate in the fridge and it came out to be 95% fat, 5% pieces of bark

Any time it's smoking. Just make sure you start with a clean pan or foil, and it has to be in there long enough to be cooked.
