Pulled Pork with a new techique for me

Trying some new techniques just to change it up. I know I should only change one thing at a time to test but what the hell. First, Nitro Butt; running it hot at 350*. Wanted 325* but it settled at 350*. Next, I cut slits in the meat to allow flavor penetration of Piedmont Dip vinegar BBQ sauce. Next, I built the fire with chunks of hickory and apple throughout the center of the stack of lump. And last, I made a new homemade rub. We'll see how this turns out. 3 hours in and it's already at 125* IT. Dinner will not be late tonight.

Great looking pics so far. I like the idea of the vinegar sauce on a high cook....it may counter balance for some added tenderness. Keep us updated as you bring it in for landing.

I just thought about something. You may want to think about adding some liquid to the drip pan. At 350* the drippings may burn in a way that they don't at 225*. Just a thought....Atlanta, GA - Large BGE x 2

I think the flavor was still there with the Nitro Butt, but the bro was not as crusty. I think I'll do the slit sauce mustard and rub technique overnight instead of just the morning of.I like my butt rubbed and my pork pulled.
