Looks good from here

Thanks! To be honest, it did turn out a lot darker than I expected. I was expecting a reddish color lime I see with my ribs.

Thank you. I was not expecting it to turn out that dark at all. I do wonder if the brown sugar in the rub was the reason for how dark it got.

It looks pretty darned good from here!

The oven finish does a good job and makes your kitchen smell amazing, but you can also foil-wrap it and pop it back into the smoker and the temp will climb pretty quickly. Wrapping it will also catch a lot of those wonderful juices that you can pour back over the PP once it is shredded.

Oh I had one of those disposable foil pans sitting under it during the cook. When I pulled it from the smoker, I put it in the pan and covered it. That way while it was finishing, it was sitting in the drippings. And I rested it the same way.
