Hey all.
I just smoked a pork butt. I foiled it at 155.. I wanted to wait until 200 to pull it, but ran out of time as company came over and I pullied it at 191.. I then sat it in my igloo cooler wrapped in a towel for 1 hour..
I pulled it and went to serve it. While the flavor was great and it fell apart easily, it seemed a little "mushy".. We all agreed there was something just slightly off with the texture..
One person thought the there was too much fat and that was the reason it was so soft..
I can't seem to figure out what went wrong.. Again, it wasn't bad, we all ate plenty, it's just soft and doesn't have the texture of great pulled pork..
Anyone ever have this happen before?
