Mes is back and going to smoke it.
 
OK bringing this back up.

I bought a 9.2 lb bone -in skin - on shoulder.

Going to take skin off to rub and smoke.

Figuring that its only 9 lb I would keep it whole.

Going in smoker tomorrow evening for a over night smoke.
 
Sound like a ok plan?
 
Yep sounds like a plan. At 250 I'd figure right around 2 hours per pound and add a couple hours to be on the safe side. I smoke mine at 265* to an IT of 205*. Pull from the smoker fil and rest for a hour then pull.
 
I did my last butt at 275. 

Worked out good.

Ok you should consider saving the skin for pork rinds

  Also the picnic has a stronger pork flavor than a butt & due to the higher ratio of connective tissue to meat (a butt has a higher fat/meat ratio) it may take a little longer to finish & I would suggest taking it to 205* to make sure it comes out great for you.

Thanks for the info, think I will smoke at 250-275.  

I love pork rinds.

Have to look up how to cook them.
 
I have a picnic that I am going to smoke soon and I plan on smoking the skin, then dehydrating it to make smokey dog chews for our herd of dogs!
 
I understood, my last butt I took to a IT of 207. 
 
Keep tuned in.
