Greg 724 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Decided to try and do a pork shoulder overnight and see how it went. Put on the zgrill at 2100 last night and went to bed. Awoke a wee bit earlier than usual but got up and took a peek at quarter to seven and it looks good as seen in the pic. I was also pleased to see it only used about 2" of pellets, which means lord knows how much in weight but can't be that much. Also threw on a little bit ago a smaller pork shoulder for a friend and a chuck roast to try pulled beef sammich's. When those are all done I will be putting a turkey breast on at a higher temp. not on the rug, MasterBirdBlaster, electric10162 and 3 others 6 Link to post Share on other sites

rossbowhunter 383 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 the easiest thing to smoke by far is a boston butt, i do smoke for 2 hours and slow cook @210 for (depending on weight) about 20 hours, but its almost like set and wait for tomorrows dinner....man it comes out great everytime.

You almost can't screw up a pork shoulder. Just about the only thing you can do wrong is undercook it. DonW 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I never cooked anything for that long. At 225 my shoulder falls apart after 12 hrs Link to post Share on other sites

Greg 724 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 ife got me a pair of the metal shredding claws and they seem to work pretty darn good. Link to post Share on other sites
Greg 724 Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 Chuck roast came out very tasty but not as tender as the pork a little hard to shred, gotta learn to go by feel of tenderness not temp. Turkey breast came out awesome, extremely juicy. Did not inject or brine, only a dry rub and smoked in broth. archer36 1 Link to post Share on other sites
