yes sir, that is the temp i usually aim for, since i will now be pulling, what temp to pull??
Like Tommy, I rarely have a shoulder that is truly done below 200°, but I gave up going by temperature years ago. Instead I go by how it feels when you insert a probe. Honestly it's simple and it works every single time no matter what.
I start checking around 190° -195°. If the probe slides in all the way like warm butter with little or no resistance, then it's done. If it slides in part way then hits resistance, then that means the connective tissues in the middle aren't done breaking down yet. Wait another 30 minutes and check again.
Every shoulder is different and this technique can't fail because you're letting the meat tell you if it's done or not, not a thermometer.
Allow yourself plenty of time and if it's done sooner than expected, great! Then FTC & let it rest. If not, don't worry, because it's not that critical. The connective tissues have already broken down; so it can't relax any more than that. Any juices that come out while pulling, just mix back in and the meat willingly soaks them right back up.
If you choose to foil, you can even add in some of the foil juices and it will soak those up too, adding even more flavor.
Whichever method you choose, shoulders are very forgiving and I'm sure it will turn out great! Just be sure to get some pics to share with us!
