If i smoke a butt for pulled pork the hot and fast way, say between 325-350, should i use a mop? If so, how often should i mop it so i dont dry it out yet still get bark?
I never found it Necessary to mop Butts in my MES Smoker.Well, its 11am and we are 4 hours into the cook. I just checked the meat and its chugging along at 160 F now. I havent mopped yet but i noticed around the top vent moisture is collecting so im assuming its plenty moist in the smoker. Ill try and post pics when done
Sounds like you're opening your door to check the temp.Awesome, thanks everyone for the tips. Almost noon and its still 160, sigh. I hate this part lol
