Done! 11 and a half hours. Letting it sit for about 30 minutes before pulling. Bark is nice and hard.

Pork looks great!  You can say that now, but no one wanted to eat for the previous 70+ years while watching the Northsiders--that would have squelched any appetite.

108 without a title! But it's a cultural thing watching this team, almost religious! Haha, thanks for the compliments guys!! Tastes great!

Thomas, you've inspired me!  I started a 9.19 lb butt marinating tonight just because of you!
