I have read on here several times about smoking a picnic shoulder but was hesitant. Boy am I glad I tried it!
Based on suggestions here,, I trimmed off the skin. Man, there was a lot of it! I then trimmed most of the fat.
I started up my 30mes and set it at 225. My maverick thermometer is acting up and won't read the temperature of the smoker, so I relied on the built in thermometer..
I put it in at 10pm with hickory chips and went to bed. At 8:30am I woke up and checked my maverick and it said 194 degrees! Whoo Hoo, almost done! I let it go to 202 and took it out... I never foiled it until I took it out and then I let it rest for an hour... best pulled pork I made so far!
Here are a couple pictures!
