I think that sounds like a good idea

😂😂😂 Guys😉🥃🇺🇸

Still cookin at 6am o’clock. IT is 164. The thermostat is set for 250 but with this cold weather. It’ running about 215. I’ll check again at 9:30am That will be a solid 24hours. 😉🥃🇺🇸

24.5 hrs still cookin

Weather does factor in, when I do ribs, I add an extra hour or two. Pork ribs go on at 11:00 and off at 6:45 at 180.

It’s in the crock now on low. No hurry unless it’s not done by dinner😂😂😂😉🥃🇺🇸

24.5 hours plus more time in a crockpot? That seems like a lot of time. As a comparison, I smoke those Costco double packs of boneless pork shoulder on a Weber Smokey Mountain (charcoal) in the 220-250 range. It gets smoke for approx. 6 hours via Mesquite and Apple chunks. The total times are 8-2-1.......8 hours uncovered, then 2 hours on the same heat double wrapped in pink butcher/BBQ paper on the inside AND then heavy duty foil on the outside and then remove from heat and let rest for 1 hour before pulling into pulled pork. If you start at 7:00 AM......you're eating a little after 6:00 PM. These times should work, regardless of smoker if it stays in the 220-250 range.

If you dont wrap it it will take forever to get over the stall unless you crank the heat.

I made that mistake years ago with a brisket that I could not get to temp in a smoker.

[Twispriver]

I've never cooked anything that long and would be worried that 24 hours unwrapped over heat would evaporate all the moisture out of the meat.

The "stall' can last 2-3-4 hours.......evaporative cooling......not much happens during that period of time, but you have to get through it........the stall was figured out by physicists. BTW, I recommend double wrapping (pink butcher paper touching the meat) since I've heard that heating meat directly in contact with aluminum foil is not a healthy thing to do.

That's a real danger. Pig production has been re-engineered to produce leaner, less fat animals. Fat is your friend in matters of BBQ smoking. 8 hours uncovered and 2 hours wrapped, gets it through the stall and still keeps it moist with enough fat left to "pull" the pork easily and not end up with dry meat. I've done both bone-in and boneless with these numbers and it comes out the same........with a bone, pull on it and it should slide out clean. I usually buy pork shoulder from Costco but next time plan to look for fattier butts at Safeway/QFC/Wally. This is motivating me to fire it up.

[Blacklab]

Well  I ain’t skeerd😂😂😂.

Never taken this much time for me either. I’m okay with it. Shoulder is pretty much bullet proof on drying out. No you don’t have to hold my beer😂😂😂 Finally pics will sometime 😉🥃🇺🇸

[wadu1]

To keep meat from drying out, I spray with apple juice. Once a good char is on the meat the moisture stays in.

[Blacklab]

OK it’s done. Pulled it out of the crockpot at 420. Internal temperature was just about 200. I have it wrapped now I didn’t add any water to it. from the crockpot there’s about a half an inch of juice. I’ll let that let cool then skim fat off and mix it in with the meat.

[Blacklab]

Last 2 thanks for lookin😉🥃🇺🇸

[Twispriver]

Looks like it came out great

You forgot to post your address; a PM will work.

Even with the lengthy times posted, it looks great......nice bark. I just finished off my last quart freezer bag of pulled pork.....it makes a world class sandwich with a quality rye bread (lightly toasted), pork heated up in a saute pan and topped with a cole slaw made of cabbage, carrot, scallions and Best Food Mayo........

[Blacklab]

It did turnout good. Fidelk sounds like great sandwhich. Never tried rye and pulled pork, I will now. We do a lot with it. Enchiladas, pizza, nachos, chili, chili verde, and of course sliders. 😉🥃🇺🇸

B-Lab, be careful.......that sandwich went from being something to try to an addiction all within 3 bites.

[Blacklab]

I’ll take my chances😂😂😂😉🥃🇺🇸
