Drum doing its job. Still at temp after 8 hours. 260-275* by units thermometer which reads low. Took temperature varied 169-181 so inserted Inkbird remote into lowest temp area. Cook continues

I need to realize I usually cook 5-6# shoulders or less. Bigger shoulders take more time, who knew

Looking good so far and no worries about figuring out the bigger ones take more time. It all comes with experience :laugh:
 
Tactical Reload

9 hours since ignition and temp on drum starts to drop. Coldest temp is reading 174* via Inkbird. No desire to heat the house with oven so a tacticool reload and foil cover is in progress. I’d like to hit 200-205 before placing in my low shelf Sam’s cooler. Probably taste better in a Yetti, but I have no such cooler. But I’m always checking the used sale sites. I’d like to find one that’s fallen off a truck and looks like hell, but functions perfectly as a holding cooler for my patio cooking arena. Until then, Members Mark it is
Life’s a dance

Towel wrapped and Into the cooler at 205*. One level basket and added one level chimney plus one small split. About a 12 hour cook from ignition to cooler. Now the picnic is sleeping for a few hours
