Started a (much smaller) fire in the fire box about 45 minutes ago, oak lump and hickory chunks. Once temp got to 225 i added about 5.5 lbs of pork shoulder to the chamber. As of right now she's holding steady at 250 with some smoke that smells edible itself. This is a vast improvement from my test burn yesterday which held steady at 350.
Last night i rubbed the butt with some mustard and spice rub recipe i found on here somewhere. I apoligize for not being able to credit the source at the moment. Somewhere close to 2 hours in my dear sweet loving wife wants me to add some potatos and whole corn. What kind of husband would deny his wife some smoked corn?!? :yahoo:
If anyone is interested, i'll do a review of the final product with a q-view pictorial.
