Pulled Pork Shoulder
Doing pulled pork for the first time on the Egg today. It's a small joint, about 3 lbs, boned and rolled. Got the Egg stabilised at around 275 F and put it in at 11 in the morning. The temperature rise slowed at about 165 F and stalled for a while in the low 170s. We had a chicken to do as well, about 5 lbs, so at 2:30 the chicken went in next to the Pork and then at 4:30 (after 5.5 hours) the pork went into foil and I opened the vents a bit to finish off the chicken.

Sounds great, but some people here won't believe you without pics. Not me of course, I'm sure it was fantastic. It's those other guys you have to watch out for, they don't believe anything without pics.THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

Pork in the Egg. Coated with a mix of salt and pepper, paprika, chilli sauce and mustard.

Pork wrapped up, the chicken has been 2 hours on low here, so upping things a bit. Could probably do with 2 levels for this cook.

Done, you were too quick for me! -
Looks good. Just trying to look out for you, there are some real snarky creeps that hang out here
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER -

We ate around 7:30 and it was good. Not enough bark though, next time I'll leave longer to get it done and not wrap.

Chicken was good too!

Looks good. The Egg can make some mean pulled pork. For good bark, try something with some sugars in it. I like John Henry's Texas Pig rub.

I'm in Fredericksburg, VA, and I have an XL and a medium. -
Looks good! What kind of thermometer probe is that? Looks to have an insulated lead?Large, Medium, MiniMax, 36" Blackstone

It's an old one for oven use, so the wire is OK in the heat up to a point. Can't remember the limit but it's OK for normal indirect on the Egg. It is branded Heston Blumenthal but I think it's a Salter unit. It has 2 inputs / probes but one of the probes failed so I only have one now.kl8ton said:Looks good!
