rshacklefordiv Posted May 15, 2014 Posted May 15, 2014 Looks great. I just got a smoker in February, and I love it.
Skyfall Posted May 15, 2014 Posted May 15, 2014 I use 70% Pecan and 30% Mesquite for Pork, I usually use a 50/50 mix of Pecan and Post Oak for Beef.

MrGTO Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Good luck! Pork is really hard to screw up. Just don't pull it off the smoker too early!
SaintLuis Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 I wouldn't rub the pork with oil. Spices are water soluble more than fat soluble, so you'll get better flavor infusion and bark without the oil. Just rinse the shoulder, pat it dry and rub! 1

Just rinse the shoulder, pat it dry and rub! Saying spices are more water soluble than oil is incorrect. Some spices are more water soluble than others but not all. It also depends on the application as well. I think pepper is one of those spices that are better used w oil than water. Ultimately whatever you rub a pork butt with, it will be exposed to oil/fat from the butt anyway. I had 2 lbs of pure fat in my drippings tray after my 42lb pork butt marathon.
forgop Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 My recommendation is the Chris Lilly World Championship BBQ recipe. Best ever.
Mordenstein Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 I'm also a BBQ smoker, running a 22" Weber Smokey Mountain. For pulled pork, I use Big Bob Gipson's pork shoulder recipe. Injection + rub. I've been using this recipe for years and love it. All my pork smokes happen overnight now. I absolutely love the WSM in this respect. I put the shoulder on around 9pm, and around 7am it is nearly done.
Hunter1974 Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Cooked 2 last weekend myself on my kamado grill nothing like pork on the kamado I used pecan and little Hickory
Habana Mike Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 Couple of 8# butts over the weekend.I cover with mustard and then the rub, rest overnight.Smoke ~12 hours at 230 in the Egg with apple and a touch of hickory until they fall apart 2
teamrandr Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 I did 17 butts yesterday. All in a days work lol.
Habana Mike Posted March 29, 2015 Posted March 29, 2015 I did 17 butts yesterday. All in a days work lol. How big's your smoker?!?!! Pictures or it didn't happen
Habana Mike Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 Ignore that ^^^ Saw your pics in the BBQ thread. Awesome!!! 1
raymond5737 Posted March 30, 2015 Posted March 30, 2015 I got a traeger it does the job How do you like your Traeger Smoker? Which one did you get? I'm trying to decide between the Traeger and the Egg. I'm thinking about smoking salmon, pork, beef. Can you eat the skin when it is so black? Is that the result that you really want or is there a way to keep the meat from turning black? Love to hear your thoughts.
