Thanks man. I was thinking about wrapping early so I don't loose that color.

Happy 4th! My pork when on at just after 4am this morning!
I gotta man my grill all day though. Lol.
Labor of love!
Brisket looks delicious! I've been scared to try one of those. Haha

I'm getting my smoker ready now for a few shoulders on Friday! Added 24" of tuning plates instead of the flipped grate.

Thanks man. Its going well. For once. Lol. I just wrapped it and put her in the oven. Its been a bear all morning with temp control. Been very windy. It was about 145 inside temp so I decided to throw it in.

Thanks jarjar. I think I may try to do one this weekend again same way only wrap it tight and sdd the difference.
This is actually pretty damn fun learning how changes at different stages affect the overall outcome.
I really wanna try a brisket but it def intimidates me.

Just thought I'd check back and let everyone know I did another shoulder Sunday night for lunch labor day.
Things went far better. Used less then a bag of charcoal, only one bag of wood.
Cooker worked well. Meat was very moist. Made great pulled pork and everyone loved it.
It smoked for...
Thanks man. It was amazing good.
Good call on the bark. Didn't think about it. I wrapped last time though and it was crispy. I wonder if it makes a difference on right wrap around meat itself vs. Wrapping while it sits in a pan with space around it. That was the difference this time. Think...
Well it came ok. Very juicy. My bark did not get hard this time. Kind of soft. Bit the flavor is ridiculous.
Its been about 14 hours and I'm getting ready yo start pulling. Its been resting for about an 1.5hours.
Wonder why the bark didn't get hard. To much moisture??
Oh well. Its still...
Oh yeah. Also decided to out this together after it sitting in corner for a few months. Lol. Trying to figure it out as well. Cut charcoal holder bottom out and added 13" grate. Drilled hole in the side for an air valve.
Think the stupid ass hole in bottom needs closed up and a couple more...
Doing a cook tomorrow night. I couldn't find some metal to make a charcoal box but I cut those chincy grates down to fit just above the fire and am running it now. It holds a good amount of fuel like this.
I'm also re-seasoning it. I'm gonna get it as hot as possible and run a bag of coal...
400* today didn't get me at 225. It got me about 200*
I think I posted some times earlier or in my other thread. It was over 400* to get low 200s at 75* ambient.
Its all good. I'm planning to strip it and then coat it.

Guys I wanted to take a second to tell you all how my cook came out!
Aside from it going in the trash lol. I took the time to cook it through and check it out and pull it like i would to see the cook.
Holy crap, this was my first time smoking anything and it was amazing!
Pulled very nice...
