    What am I doing wrong?

    I just wanted to say thanks to everyone for all the great tips. I threw on an 8 pounder today at 8am. Took it out of the smoker at 4:30. Wrapped it in a towel for an hour, and I couldn't wait any longer. The meat was fall apart tender and juicy, incredible goodness!!!

    What am I doing wrong?

    If anybody can tell me what I am doing wrong, it would be greatly appreciated. I am using a Dyna Glo gas smoker. I have only been doing this for about 6 months. Most everything I smoke turns out great, however, I just can't seem to get one of the easiest meats to cooperate. The pork shoulder...
