Man oh man boykjo, that's just about the meanest thing someone can do to a meat smoker.  Your pics sure look tasty.  Sorry to hear about the cancellation.  Sounds like someone ate the meat though.  Good!

Our potluck happened but it was another busy day for me with deadlines and a last minute mandatory training I had to attend.  I smoked the 19 lbs of injected pork shoulder hot n fast in 9 hours after work Tuesday night.  On the smoker at 6:15 PM, wrapped at 11:30 PM, pulled it off the smoker at 3:15 AM Wednesday morning at 205F IT, rested until 6 AM.  Drained the juices and pulled.  It was a bit overcooked IMO but tasty.  Into the fridge it went then after work on Wednesday night I mixed in the gelatin, a little Bone Suckin' Sauce, and apple cider.

I couldn't attend the potluck but my pulled pork was there.  The potluck was lightly attended by about 15-18 people but half the pork still disappeared. When my mandatory training was over and I came out of my office hole folks had made me a plate.  They loved the meat and I heard compliments all afternoon.  They made me leave the leftovers in the break room fridge for lunch today.  I didn't think it was one of my better efforts but like I've said before, folks who aren't meat smokers who taste true smoked pulled pork learn how it is really supposed to taste.

BTW, one of the women brought in a portable induction plate to use to reheat the meat.  I took the pulled pork to work in an induction capable 9 quart Dutch oven she had given me as a Christmas present.  It was just about full with meat.  That induction plate had the cold meat hot in 45 mins with no burning!  I was amazed. Gotta get me one of those plates.

Sounds like we work at the same place...
 
I'm glad to see no sauce on the pork. I've made 3-4 butts already since New Year's and prefer them w/o sauce.

BTW, what's "work"? (A question only a retired guy can ask...) HA HA!! ; ' )
 
No sauce here. I smoked many butts over the years and was set in my ways but decided to do something different and used mustard for the first time.....I rubbed mustard on the butts and then packed the rub on. Smoked open at 280 with pecan to 160. panned open then moved to the 275 oven and finished at IT of 205  The bark was awesome. Had to be the best butts I ever smoked... These were removed from the oven to cool and went to the fridge. I dropped whole butt/fat into the roaster and pulled when they were heated up.....  I am now a pre mustard your butt head.........lol

Thanks for looking
