It was just about 8.5 pounds, so around 12 hours. I am 2 hours in, and I am going to make smoke for about anothr hour or so, then just do heat. Quick pic of the 2 hours checkup.
Yep, headed to 203-205 then going to let it sit for a little bit and then shred it. I am saving the dripping to add back when I reheat tomorrow for the potluck.
1st time I have done a shoulder, and I am super excited.
Got the smoker setup right about 230-232. Got the meat on the heat a little before 9am Pacific. Its going to be warm today in Seattle so I will watch the temp this afternoon. Here it is rubbed up and in the cabinet.
EDIT...
Got it on about an hour ago, hoping to pull it apart right before I go to bed around 10pm.
I am starting a nee thread in the grilling pork forum if anyone wants to follow along today.
Here is my setup for todays Pork Shoulder. Water pan is full, the tin pan is for dripping so I can reincorporate the juice when I reheat for the work BBQ tomorrow.
Will move my thermometer for my next smoke tomorrow. I am just doing 1 pork butt, so I will put the grill therm on the same grate as the pork.
Thanks for the advice.
... and I definitely overlooked this. You are correct, I did baby backs. Have made a note in the book to go with a 2-2-1 next time I use baby backs, not spare ribs!
Good catch!
