    Pork shoulder questions

    Wanting to tackle smoking a pork shoulder for the first time on my new OKJ Bronco drum smoker. Assuming my meat is in the 6-7 pound range (I think that's pretty average), what's a good temperature to target for the chamber? I'm thinking 250-260F might be appropriate. And if I'm able to maintain...

    A poorly written review of the Oklahoma Joe Bronco

    I've had the PBC for about 10 years and it's served me well, but it is showing its age now. The newer ones have a porcelain enamel surface which should handle the elements better than mine. But before buying a new PBC, I just discovered the Bronco and for about the same price, the Bronco appears...
