Looking good N8. I just need to get that "Smell-a-vision" app for my computer, and I'll be set.

 

[bluetang]

Mighty fine there! They gonna be eatin good.

 

[N8man]

The smoke has cleared, the barbecue is gone and bellies were filled...
I received word that the barbecue was a hit....

No pictures unfortunately of the finished pork except for the aftermath...

From start to finish the DrumPit was a trooper, cooking 16 hours throughout
the night, horizontal rains and wind...can hardly wait to do it again!!!

last shot of the DrumPit....

 

[N8man]

I ended up with about 35 pounds of finished meat out of 70 pounds raw, by the way...

Personally, I'm not the least bit surprised. Take a bow, cuz.:thumb::thumb:

 

[gtr]

Yup, based on what I've seen from ya in the past it'd be hard for me to imagine it turning out any way other than fanfarkingtastic. :thumb:

I may have finally found a source for whole shoulders in SoCal - apparently Asian markets have them. :whoo:

Masterful work work N8! :clap2:
