“My go to recipe for smoking a pork shoulder! I always get so many compliments and have given out the recipe numerous times. I gave up the spritz simply because I tend to make this over night, and waking up once during the night to wrap it is more than enough ” — a cook, 5.0★
“I’ve made this twice, once with a 4 lb roast and then a 10 lb. Great tasting each time and falling apart tender. Cook times are much longer than listed, 8 and 18 (overnight) respectively but I’m just using my grill, not a dedicated smoker. Apple wood chips are” — a cook, 5.0★
