    Smoking a pork shoulder while keeping my social distance

    Thanks for the info. I have noticed that as the meat gets closer to 200 degrees I need a greater "delta" in the temperature to pull it across the line (grill temp closer to 300 degrees versus 250). I will be sure to go above 200 next time!. It is great to have such a helpful group of community...

    Smoking a pork shoulder while keeping my social distance

    Thanks. I will be sure to go to 200 IT in the future. I am always worried about drying the meat out if it gets to hot. What is the max IT you have ever reached to ensure the meat is soft to the probe? Thanks!

    Smoking a pork shoulder while keeping my social distance

    It was a little tougher than I am used to. I usually cook till 200 degrees IT, but took off at 195 degrees. Not sure if 5 degrees would have removed the toughness. I was able to pull it, just took a little more elbow grease. It tasted good and I have plenty of leftovers.

    Smoking a pork shoulder while keeping my social distance

    I went to Shop Rite the other day, and they were sold out of Chicken. But they had plenty of pork and beef! So I bought a pork shoulder and am smoking it today while I work out of the house. I put the rub on last night. I am smoking it with applewood, and will bring to IT of 200 degrees.

    Thanks for the information! I currently use charcoal baskets for indirect cooking, but this looks like it will allow much higher charcoal capacity, and better offset heat. I will definitely give it a try! I am also going to try the prime rib recipel Glenn

    Hello, I am a new member to this forum. I wanted to join as I learned a lot from the discussions available to non members. I am starting small, just smoking on a Weber Kettle Grill - it is just my wife and I so I don't need a lot of capacity right now. I would , however, like to step up to a...
