Let the journey begin. I'll be asking for advice throughout. Going to smoke it at 225-275. My temps fluctuate on my wrangler. Wrap it at 170 and either oven it at 250 and take it out at 200 degrees internal.

Yes it is - might want to consider the possibility of eating a little later if that is an optionThanks! And I might run it hotter in a little since it's a 8.95 lb picnic. Although the skin must've weighed almost a lb or more. So dinner time is around 7 or 8. Cutting close
That would be better - you can't rush a picnic & it can be hard to explain that to a hungry family...I can use this for tomorrow or whenever. They know I been just tinkering with my first smoker!
I hate when life gets in the way of smoking. :-)Yes for sure. I really intended to start this thing early this morning. Unfortunately I had to run to my college to turn in paperwork.
it is an accu rite from academy. it was 20 something bucks but i think its because it has the wireless pager. i did not boil or ice bath test. i will on my maverick when it gets here. so 212 for boiling and what about the ice bath? near 32?
Is the thermometer you are using now a known good one? Did you check either of them for accuracy in boiling water or an ice bath?
