Smoking Fanatic
I agree. In my case I was reading something online or I watched a video...really can't recall now and that person was mopping every hour. So basically thats what I did. I didn't get any pics this time as it really wasn't a production lol. Fam just wanted some pulled pork and pulled chicken.Pork butts and shoulders don't really need mopping or spritzing. There is plenty of fat to keep things moist. Remember the old adage: if you're lookin, ya ain't cookin! Every time the lid is opened, a tremendous amount of heat is lost and the smoker spends a good deal of time getting back up to temp thus extending the time it takes to get done.
