    How long does the "stall" last?

    Well, I have some new things to try.  Either stay up all night or wrap at the stall.  Can't wait to give them a try. Thanks to everyone that replied.

    How long does the "stall" last?

    After 12 hours I just gave up. Wrapped the 7 lb shoulder in foil and put it in a cold oven over night. It was 177 degrees when taken from The smoker. In morning it was tasty but dry. It is only good chopped not as pulled like I hoped.

    Smoking a 7 LB Pork Shoulder. How long does the Stall last?

    I started 9 hours ago.  220 to 280 temp in cc.  Meat temp has been stuck at 162 for the last two hours.  Help.

    How long does the "stall" last?

    I started 9 hours ago.  Temp constant between 220 and 280.  For the last two hours the internal temperature has been a constant 162 f.  Am I in the stall?  Any ideas?

    Smoking on the beach in Crystal Beach, FL

    New to smoking. The first time was a total disaster. Meat was dry and tough. I am finding it VERY hard to control the temperature in my Char-Grill smoker. Hopefully with the help from this forum I'll learn

    Regulating temperature

    I have a Char-Grill smoker. This is my second attempt. First attempt was a disaster. I just started a pork shoulder this morning but I can't keep the temperature in the 220 - 260 range. Keeps climbing over 300. I've closed the fire box vent, but it's not a snug seal. Help
