Cooking 2 pork shoulders at the same time, time question
JMc
Posts: 6
I am cooking 2 pork shoulders this weekend on my XL egg and need help in figuring how long additional time over cooking 1, if there is any.[p]Does cooking 2 15lb pork shoulders take significantly longer?[p]
Thanks
Thanks

JMc,
Two shoulders cooking at the same temp and same size should take the same amount of time as one would. Maybe a little longer for the extra cool mass and providing they are not touching. -RP

JMc,[p] Two that size on the XL doesn't make much difference. I have fit six 7-8 pounders on mine. I took one off just because, but I think it would have handled it well.[p] Just curious is that 15 pounds in the Cryovac? If so you may have four.

nope fresh.[p]
more curious about the cooking time when cooking 2 instead of one.[p]
Ill be smoking at 225....[p][p]thanks

AZRP,[p][p]Thanks, that is what i figgered. just did not want to invest the wrong amount of time[p]
Thanks!!

JMc,[p] 1-2 hours depending on the amount of fat, bone and connective tissue. But with 15 pounders you are looking at 15+ hours to reach 190+[p] The size of those two on the XL won't make much difference.
