Reply to "SM025 First Pork Shoulder Smoke ISSUES"

I haven't really heard of people using soaked chips in a cookshack, particularly on a longer cook. I am open minded, but how long do they last? I'd use some chips in a jam but the 2" x 2" chunks seem to work perfectly. Are you replacing the soaked chips regularly during the cook?

Also, 6 hours for a 7.5 lb pork butt cooked at 225 seems fast. I would put an oven thermometer in the cooker to make sure it was actually 225. I'd also check the meat thermometer in boiling water to ensure it shows 212, although in your pic the bone looks like it is sliding out so I doubt it is undercooked. Not sure
