I am new at smoking with my Cajun Injector electric smoker. I have a question about smoking a Boston butt for pulled pork. I am now smokeing my second butt and having the same problem this time as last time. I think I am encountering the stall but it is at a much lower temp than those that I have read about. I put the 3.5 butt (I got a smaller one this time) on this morning at 10:30am with temp set at 230 degrees. My smoker has a pretty wide temp swing at that temp setting (200 degrees to 235 degrees). However most that I have read about the stall is that it comes at a higher temp than I am having. Mine seem to be stalling at 140/145 degrees. I reached 145 at 3:00pm and now at 4:45 it is at 142 degrees. So in the last hour and 45 minutes it has lost 3 degrees. I have not foiled it yet as all that I have read say foil around 165/170 degrees. Can anyone help me with why this is doing this? It is possible to go into the stall at 145 degrees.
Thanks
Ron
