We picked up a $23 pork shoulder for $8 at Kroger yesterday, so I cooked it today. Used "It's My Rub" on it, along with some Post Oak and a chunk of Mesquite just for the heck of it. 

Ten hours. 

Here's what it looked like before I took it off. 

 

Yes, and it was good. 

Tonight I'm going to sous vide some bacon and cook it tomorrow. 

Yeah, I know.... But it's supposed to be good.

    Got a 9 pounder on the small and almost ready to pull as it hit 197*. I do a butt or shoulder about once every other month. I cooked this one a little higher in temp 280-290* since it went on the Egg around 2:30 PM. I didn't want to cook it at 250* and wait till after midnight for it to finish. The bark does not look look like it does on the slower cooks.

    No one ever told Leroy he had a good looking butt before. :rofl:

    Leroy, last ones I did were for Mom's 100th birthday, done in her oven. No smoke flavor, but actually pretty good!

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!
