“I followed the recipe exactly, but found the meat to be lacking flavor. My pork shoulder was 8.5 lbs, so maybe I should have used extra spices. Also, I couldn't detect any smoke flavor. I'll add more to the leftovers tomorrow. It took an extra 2 hours, but it ” — a cook
“@ctmikeNo real internal temp to shoot for since the is a slow cooked mea that is more time dependent than temperature. You can get tender results with an internal temp of 165 if you hold it long enough. Mot pork shoulder recipes recommend 190 as a final target” — a cook
