    First smoke tomorrow.

    Was 7.5# there about. out of the smoker And result I've really not had pulled pork before.  I need to see what BBQ place here in Austin has some.,  Also need to choose a better sauce.  I was using Stubbs original and it's a tad sweet for me. Spice level is to my liking and my dog will not...
