I know this is a dumb question, but whenever I do shoulders I take it to about 200 degrees and after a rest in a cooler for a few hours Ill use my hands and PULL the meat apart, resulting in this:

It has that stringy texture to it, and while its good, I wanna grab a CHUNK of meat thats equally tender and delicious.

So my dumb question is:

For CHOPPED pork is the same EXACT thing just...well...chopped up? Or do you guys take it to a lower temp to keep it from fall apart tender?
 
Yup, you got it, same thing. By the way that PP of yours looks delicious, i'm starving.
 
I got heavy gloves at Lowes at some point that have worked for me. Not as high up the forearm though.. thanks for that link... Looks like something I will be ordering..
 
I dont care for chop, but it goes a long way if you cooking for a crowd. I have a bunch of those black gloves use for chemical handling,work wonderful
