Pulled pork for the first time on the homemade offset.

Did a mustard base for the rub this time (chili powder, paprika, brown sugar, onion and garlic powder, cayanne, salt, pepper, ground mustard)

Did some chicken 1/4s on it about 2 weeks ago. This is my first long run. All wood minus a chimney of lump to get it started. Using plum and apple wood

I will say the plum wood worked great. Wasn't sure if it would or not as it was just some rogue tree in my parents neighbor's yard that a large branch fell off of into my parents yard. Little yellow sweet fruits all over it.

Now I need to go back to my parents and get the rest of it as I used about 1/2 of what I took on this smoke.

As far as using all wood - smoke ring and bark was a lot better in this then when using my MINI WSM with charcoal and a few wood chunks. Smoke flavor wasn't that much stronger. Amount of babysitting is through the roof more than with the mini.
