Memphis dust on a pork butt plus PBC = Best bark ever. Better than any restaurant I've had.

Hey Paul - how long did you cook it? What was the temp. range? Did it pull easily?
Inquiring hungry people want to know! :D

I'm guessing t was 8-9 hours because I didn't wrap during the stall. I fell asleep and when I woke up the IT had dropped two degrees from when my daughter last checked it so I figured the barrel was getting cold. That was at about 7 something hours so I put it in the oven for 30 minutes to finish, and then I wrapped and wrapped in a towel and put In a cooler for about 40 minutes. Pulled great, like t wanted to be pulled. It was about 4 1/2 lbs to start

Oh, the temp range. It hung out around 225 at first for about an hour, and I cracked the lid a few times to check and add wood to it and each time the temp came up a little and stayed. I went to bed around 265 and woke up two hours later at 300! I was surprised that it went up that much that late into it. I started out at about 20° outside. I'm sure that had some effect.

Great looking pulled pork!

Pork looks good, Appears to have had a nice smoke ring. What's the bread? Giant biscuit ?

Looks like some good eats.

Great looking pulled pork, nice smoke ring and bark. ;)

It looks especially good, Paul. And thanks for posting the cook details. It makes it easier for those of us that are less-skilled to duplicate the results.
I'm thinking that the bark was hard and crisp rather than chewy. Right?

Wish my wife like pulled pork. Not a fan. I love it. Looks good.

Less skilled! Lol. I'm probably the least skilled here!
The bark is somewhere in between I guess. But it's sweet and tasty and a perfect compliment for pork. Look up Meatheads Memphis Dust and give it a shot, there's some science behind it. Magic happens after about 2 hours into the cook. You might have to break out the coffee grinder for the ground Rosemary or make a trip to Penzeys, but it's worth it. Makes stupid-good ribs too.

Holy bark!
Looks fantastic!

Just plain beautiful. Nice cook! Thanks for the details as well.
