Not sure how big it was but sounds like you may have pulled it off a little early . But if it was good thats all that matters. Just think how much more tender it will be whenyou hit that sweet spot.

 

[jbgsmoker]

true but it was tender and juicy and it was a 17 lb not bad for my firstone problem i had was judging how much coals to keep 275

That's true its hard to guess the temperature of heat . You might want to look for a good remote control Gage . I love mine my wife bought me a ivation thermometer with both meat temperature and heat temperature works great . Good luck with your future smoking projects if i can help just ask.
