    That looks great! Nice bark on that. How long was the cook?

    Pulled Pork is Going down!

    I usually run fat side up. I've heard arguments both ways. I stick about a cup of apple juice in the drip pan and let it go. I've found not wrapping gives it a better bark and I'm all for that! Good luck! Let us know how it goes!

    Pulled Pork is Going down!

    Got a couple small bone in pork butts for a little family get together tomorrow. By far my favorite thing to smoke! Going to try a new rub and see how it turns out. First time cooking for the fiance's family, so I thought I'd better go with something I know will turn out.

    First unwrapped pork butt

    Those ribs look great! That's a smart idea, I think eventually I'll have to get an offset smoker as it seems to be the method of choice for the majority of people. I'd assume it gets better flavor, but probably have to monitor the heat more than an electric?

    First unwrapped pork butt

    First unwrapped pork butt

    Thanks for the comment! I'll have to try the lemon juice method. I used a apple cider and water for this one.

    First unwrapped pork butt

    Thanks for the info! I would agree that opening the smoker drops the temp I noticed that right away. Do you use a water bowl or just let it roll the way it is?

    First unwrapped pork butt

    Well after 12 hours I've finally gotten the pork butt up to 200. Still a couple degrees left to go. I decided not to wrap this one but did spritz it every hour to try and keep it somewhat moist. First time trying the unwrapped method. What do you think? Going to let it sit in a cooler before...

    New guy here

    New comer to the world of smoking. The fiance got me a MES 140 smoker for Christmas so I've been obsessed with smoking meats. I've done ribs/brisket/pork butt so far. None have come out as good as I would have thought. I think that's mostly due to my lack of patience, so cooking a pork butt...
