Is the meat tender?

[hank77]

I'm a newbie to smoking but have had some pork that a relative made. I like my meat fork tender and his was relatively tough. Can anyone tell me how it is supposed to be?
Thanks for any help and oh do I love this forum!

What cut was it? Pulled pork, ribs, ham, chitlins, feet? Just curious.

If its ribs try the 3-2-1 method that is almost fullproof mine come out juicy and tender everytime

I have only tried pork loin once, when i first started smoking. My results were not that great either. The meat was a little dry. When i try one again i may try to foil it after it reaches 140° and finish off that way.

I am also looking forward to making some buckboard bacon.

There will be some more help along soon.
