I'm sure we Newbies are real pains.....
I bought a very small pork butt (3 lbs) that is held together with a mesh, I assume so it won't fall apart while cooking. Should I take it off before I rub it and smoke it in a 8X8 aluminum pan? Or rub it with the mesh on and then smoke? I don't want to hurt any bark I can get but I also want a great pulled pork.
Thanks
