Hello, sure am glad I happened across this web site! Can't wait to explore!
I did my 1st smoke yesterday on a Brinkman Smoke n Grill (charcoal). I used 2pcs of boston butt about 7lbs each, one on the bottle grill, one on the top. I smoked it for about 12hrs keeping the temp between 200-235. After 12 hrs I wrapped in foil and put them in a cooler for about an hour...
When I went to pull the meat, it really didn't shred easily like when I've done them in a crock pot. I was expecting the meat to fall off the bone but I had to work to get it off. It had the nice red ring near the top but the juiceness wasn't there.
Did I cook to long, or not enough?
Thanks in advance for your help and I can't wait to fire it up again!
