Got Wood.
So my girlfriends parents want me to do some cooking for a 4th of July party they are having. It will be around 10 or so people attending. For me, this is a lot. They are providing hot dogs, burgers, and sides. I am thinking of smoking about an 7-8 lb. pork shoulder on my UDS. Any suggestions for wood?? I have used mesquite before on a shoulder and thought it was good. I am thinking apple though this time. Oh, this is only my second shoulder I will have ever cooked. I typically stick to ribs and chicken since I am still learning. The first shoulder came out fantastic though and had great reviews from friends, so I am confident in my abilities. I just want to make this some of the best pork they will ever eat. Thanks for any help!
