Welcome to the SMF the best BBQ site on the net glad to have you

Looks like you are well on your way to pitmaster.

One of my favorite smokes is a butt

they are hard to kill. The plateau is killer you start to swear your thermo is broke the zoom its done.

I usually mop mine every hour with a vinegar based mop sauce. I aim for about 195 to 205 degrees for pulling. I also keep the tamp in the smoker between 180 to 220 degrees a little lower than most recommend but seems to work well for me.
