New smoker and 1st attempt at pulled pork

That looks sweet... now stop looking at it!!!! If you get impatient wrap it in foil once it gets to 170 internal. That will speed things up a bit. Either way... take it to 195, let it rest for an hour in a cooler, and pull that bad boy!!!

If you get impatient, watch a movie to distract yourself!

There's no "speed things up" in barbecue and there's no crying in baseball!

i know I know. But I like looking at it!!! Even if it adds time...now that I have a stogie lit up and it magically rained for once I could sit out here all night

It's been 100+ for over 50 days...it's about 85 now because of the rain...heaven on earth!

Another little tip is to cut your sauce with a little apple juice and apple cider vinegar to thin it out a little.
Looks super yummy.
Thats my B-Day gift to myself is a new smoker. Have not picked it out yet. I will miss my 11 year old one but the bottom is rotting out and the electric thermostat is shorting out. Man, the old smoker smells sooooo yummy with the years of thick resin built up inside.
