I wrap at 160 and go to probe tender . I've had them finish all the way to 211 and higher . I only watch the temp for wrapping . After that it's wait 'til it probes tender .
Probe tender it is then. It's at 203 now and not quite there. I'll wrap in towel when done and let it rest for an hour. Thanks guys!
BTW chopsaw that handle you made me for my '80's Kamado is holding up just fine, still looks new, thanks again!

Like the other guys I do between 205-211F / probe tender. chopsaw chopsaw have you ever used Minors beef broth and / or Minors Au jus concentrate? It’s a standard staple in our frig. I keep the chicken, beef and beef au jus at all times. When I find it I also buy the pork.

Couldn't agree more about the minors products. I use the beef in my injections

For Pulled Chucky Beef, I wrapped at about 165°, and pulled between 203° & 208°.

Some of these high IT temps take me by surprise, but I have to admit, my recent Chuckie was only to 203° and it wasn't probe done, so my next will go higher and I'll chalk it up to experiment.

Taking it into the 210 range was a game changer for me. I used to have chucks that some would pull great while the rest of the chuck had tougher pieces. Higher temp gives me a perfect pull everytime
