We had a big cookout for my friends and family today. Had a swimming pool and a bounce house for the kids too. I had three grills in use today to cook 9# of pork shoulder, 10# of chicken drummies and thighs, and a bunch of hand-formed burgers and dogs.
My self-assessment tells me that this pork shoulder cook was executed better than ever before. I snaked it up with Royal Oak Ridge and apple wood. The snake cooked for a solid 9 hours at a steady 270 with zero manual intervention. Six hours later, the pork read 204 IT and the snake was only half spent. It rested for an hour and basically fell apart when I pulled it. It spent the next three hours doing some stuffed sweet peppers, then burgers and dogs intermittently. The peppers should have been called poppers since we couldn’t stop popping em in our mouths!! Surprisingly awesome lil guys!!!
The chicken was done with my standard rub and cooked for two hours using my poortex.
Kettlebb and his family came out and he snapped a great pic of the event! He also agented a 78 Faded Black for $20 from his side of town for me.
Helluva day!!
