    First attempt at a pork butt

    Ok thanks, this has been a very good day learned alot, maybe I'll try it without the pan of water and mist with the apple juice concentrate? Remove from foil then hit it with 300+ degrees to crisp the bark a little. Your thoughts then I'll let you be. Thanks for corrisponding to me.

    First attempt at a pork butt

    Now I'm confused I thought the misting helped in the bark making process I also had a pan of water that lasted through the whole smoke.

Has very flavorful bark and as my wife put it when I unwrapped it she said and I qote, OMG don't spill Any of...

    First attempt at a pork butt

    That looks really good I did my first pork sholder today, it turned out very nicely also if I say so myself. Yours looks as if it has a better bark, mine was only 4 lbs so it didnt smoke as long, just wonder if that has anything to do with it.

    First Pork sholder.

    This peice pulled beautifully, pulled at 205 wrapped and let set for 45, i now know what is meant by the poke test with the thermometer, I was all smiles when I moved the probe and felt the hot knife through warm butter feeling. It was a fun day with a lot of learning. Thanks SMF for all the...

    First Pork sholder.

    Maybe there wasnt enough fat in this lil guy to get it to pull but is it ever delicious. Its bigger brother is still smoking and the real big one is waiting in the deep freeza anticipating its turn. Ill be taking the one on the smoker mow to 205.

    First Pork sholder.

Heres some Q-View Its currently 30 degrees an blustery so my lil tarp house is awesome. 57 degrees inside. Here is the next round after I...

    First Pork sholder.

    Here is a prepped 4lb pork sholder, the second peice was on top of the roast but pretty much detatched so I took advantage and dressed is differently hoping for an extremely barky peice with a good kick.

    Dethaw time of a 12 to 14 pound pork sholder?

    Thanks for all the info, I took it to my local farm market and had the cut it in half, so it should be a easier smoke now. I've become a pretty big fan of the rub an sauce Sweet Rub o Mine. I just added a needle valve to my MBG 30 pro, I just need the weather to break a little. I will show it...
