Default 1st Offset Pork Shoulder cook: in progress (Pron)

Fired up the offset for my first extended cook with it. I've done a 4.5 hour Turkey smoke but nothing longer than that. Fired it up around 0-dark-thirty with a bit of unlit K, followed by a lit chimney of K and two cherry splits.

Been aiming for hot and fast this time so trying to keep temps around 300. Learning that it is harder to keep temps locked it with an all wood fire (the K was burned off long ago) but I love the tinkering that it takes to keep the fire just right.

So far burning nice and clean, at this point I am 5.5 hours in and the two shoulder pieces are still in the stall. That is fine, I figured at least 10 hours, even going hot and fast. 14 lbs. total between two pieces so each is around 7 lbs. No injection this time, foiled at 165 IT and sprayed with flat Cherry Pepsi (no apple juice in the house).

Got hungry around 8:30 so I made a Firebox Breakfast. Threw two uncooked brats into the smoker for about 40 minutes. Then got a frying pan from the kitchen and made eggs and brats with butter bread and OJ. Delicious. Enjoy the PRON more to come when finished and pulled. Thanks for looking.

Costco sells boneless pork shoulders for a decent price. They always come in two separate pieces (boston butt and picnic?). One is always a little smaller than the other. These two totaled just under 14# so one is probably around 6.5 the other maybe 7.5. I can find them there as big as 15# total. Tonight just feeding the family for dinner. Pulled Pork Burritos (one of my personal favorites). An out of town buddy is stopping by later in the evening for some beers. Probably will make some PP nachos for him. You going to stop by too?
