Do I have to wrap a pork shoulder?

[teesquare]

It is rare for me to wrap either butts, or brisket. I like the added texture of the barked - pulled and added in for pork - or just as a crust on loaf bread, when it comes to brisket.

But - I have no problem with wrapping - if I am going to hold and keep warm or transport meats. You will have a softer bark, but no one with complain.

So, there really is only one rule - like Aclarke said - make it the way YOU like it - and share pictures and recipes with us!

Well, it looks like I will eventually make it both way, because thus far the only pork shoulder/butt I've made has been in a crockpot. I'm excited to try it out on the pbc this weekend...
