First time smoking

[ryan lawrence]

I just joined this forum and was told I should post here. I have been posting and updating in the role call forum. This is my first experience smoking. I decided on a pork butt for my first time. It's a 6lb butt. It's been on about 10 hours so far and is nearly ready for foil wrap. I think it looks pretty damn good! I'm using apple wood chunks.

Looks good so far

My unwrapped pork butts take a long time to finish. I only wrapped BB once and I did not like the flavor. Never wrapped a pork shoulder.

If you have not done so, leave it unwrapped and see how you like it. But be prepared for a long smoke

Also welcome to SMF, there are a lot of great people, advice and ideas that are shared all of the smoked meat forums.

I have learned ALOT from these great people

Keep the patience , your doing well. You picked a good Hunk of Meat to start on. Pig Shoulder is almost fool proof ,well let's say it's very forgiving.

That's looking grear for 4 hrs. You won't have as much good Bark with a wrapping , however it will be good

 Try a finishing sauce with it :http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/newsearch?search=Finishing+sauce&=Search

Have fun and . . .
