Just a quick question for anyone out there. I did 4 pork butts on my brand spanking new Amerique.
It's been 11 hours at 225 degrees and the internal temperature seems to have reached a plateau of 187 degrees. I decided to mop them with some east carolina sauce and noticed an excellent bark and the bones seemed loose enough to pull out.
My question is, should I continue to cook and perhaps bump the temp up to 250 until internal reaches 195-200, or should I go by the loose bone check?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated...
