4 1/2 hrs in.......gave it a good spray of apple cider vinegar and wrapped in foil. Temp had crept up just a little but no big deal.

Nicely done CBLSU...looks great!
I had to move the birds from the Binkmann to the Akorn, the temp was not maintaining.

What's the diameter of cooking surface on those Akorns?
I have a large kamado Joe.......18"
Looks like the Akorn will hold some food.

Akorn Diameter is 20", so is a little larger than large BGE as well.

Just took off the chickens....just wrapped them up in foil and placed in a cooler with the shoulder. Will take a picture before we eat, did not want to lose the moisture. Everything looks great!

How long did the shoulder cook? Mines still going.
Posted on 4/27/13 at 3:34 pm to CBLSU316
4 1/2 hours.
Posted on 4/27/13 at 3:37 pm to WildcatMike
It done that quick? You gonna pull the pork?
Posted on 4/27/13 at 3:41 pm to CBLSU316
It was more like 5 hours....yes, pulled pork.

What internal temp did you take that butt to? Mine has been on for 6 hours and its only at 171. 6lb bone in. Not gonna pull it til 195
Posted on 4/27/13 at 3:58 pm to gmrkr5
Had the temp consistent at 250 range
Posted on 4/27/13 at 4:05 pm to WildcatMike
Let us know how it turns out......seems like it needs to go longer to me.
Mines at 7 1/2 hrs and meat temp is 192.......gonna pull it off at 195 and let rest in a cooler til about 6pm.

I meant the internal temp of the butt
Unless that thing was 2 or 3 lbs there's no way its done

I usually like to go 250 for about 8 or 9 hours for pulled pork.

Gmrk,
I'm doing a six pounder tomorrow. I'm interested in how long it takes you. If you don't mind can you post your temp and final time? Thanks.

If your doing it at about 225-250 degrees you'll need 1.5 - 2 hrs per pound............every piece of meat is different.

Ill let you know what it finishes at. Been on for about 7.5 hours and its at 176. Like another poster said though, every piece of meat is different and it could vary by 2 hours for 2 similar pieces of meat. My advice is start early and if it finishes quicker than your ready for just hold it in an ice chest wrapped in foil
Posted on 4/27/13 at 5:15 pm to gmrkr5
Mine is resting in a cooler......gonna "pull" it at about 6pm.
Posted on 4/27/13 at 5:17 pm to CBLSU316
Rarely have I had a butt finish in under 12.
Posted on 4/27/13 at 5:19 pm to OldHickory
Yea this one appears to be stalled at 178. Might be out here a while....
