Looks excellent Jim, very nice work on the kettle, you will enjoy for sure. I’d have been picking bites from that like a mad man.

Alrighty Gents, non-gents, and those questioning! Here’s the story…9.5 hours and 250 -ish degrees on the kettle and it was probe tender at 205 degrees IT and 2:30 am. Foil boated it at 170 degrees. So I wrapped it in foil and into a 170 degree oven til noon. Then into a cooler and wrapped in towels.

Bark suffered some from the wrapping.
Sliced beautifully. Passed the bend test. And came apart with a gentle tug.

Had a pretty little smoke ring and was extremely juicy!

Will I do it again? Heck yeah! Family all raved over it and I thought it was pretty good.
Want to thank all you folks on here for the advice, tips, and encouragement you all give.
