    You've got probably another 3-4 hrs. Pull when it probes like buttuh. When you say foil do you mean a Texas crutch or FTC?  Try using butchers paper if you have it vs foil. Gives much better results imo.

    Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.

    That's pretty fast.  At 375 it is usually a pound per hour.  You good to wrap if you are at 175.  Take it up over 300 it will help it get down.

    Thanks for the responses.. I thought according to the franklin method you pulled at 175 and wrapped in foil or butcher paper and put back on until temp reached 203.    If you look at my graph my stall was extremely short just didn't want to take off to early...

    Give this link a look (takes some time for the video) and then go for it!
    Butcher Paper vs Foil vs No Wrap. You be the judge.

    Sorry, i thought you meant pull and wrap for ftc. You could wrap now if you plan to go that route. Check out that thread that @lousubcap recommended
