    I may have ruined my first pulled pork boston butt

    Holy crap.  Just pulled the roast.  It was delicious!  Was a little tougher than I thought it'd be but wow!  Great flavor!

    I may have ruined my first pulled pork boston butt

    I read about what you are saying but didn't think my little BB(2.6 lbs) would take that long to get out of the plateau range.   I love this... I learn so much from every smoke I do.  Hopefully I'll be able to remember all of my mistakes and avoid them in the future!

    I may have ruined my first pulled pork boston butt

    I picked it up from the local supermarket.   I read about the "plateau" but I never thought it would drop 4-5 degrees IT.  You're right.  Next time I'm going with a 8+ lbs butt and doing it right! Thanks

    Is a 2.6 lbs Boston butt too small to smoke for pulled pork?

    People keep saying to be "careful" and "watch your temps"...  A little clarification would be nice.  I'm a novice and hate ruining good meat.  I'm learning from my mistakes but other than this forum, have no where else to go for advice or learning opportunities.

    Is a 2.6 lbs Boston butt too small to smoke for pulled pork?

    I think I'm going to smoke it at 220 from start till the IT gets to 195 and then pull it off, let it rest for 1.5 hours and pull away!

    Is a 2.6 lbs Boston butt too small to smoke for pulled pork?

    I was going to make one with my novice skills and then I started reading on the forum that you generally don't want to get under 6-7 lbs roast for pulled pork? I really don't want to throw this piece of meat in the crock pot! What do you think?  Stick it in the smoker and hope for the best?

    Central MN newbie smoker checking in

    I've been reading the forum for about 3 months now.  I've purchased an MES 30 with window and have had moderate success smoking.  Here's what I've done so far. Ribs - first time turned out really tough.  Will try the 221 method next time! Fattie - turned out excellent! Pork loin - bacon...
