I’m new to the smoking world/community (5-mos) and had temperature flux issues with my 1600PS so I installed a heat shield that corrected the problem. Now, I’m noticing that when I cook let’s say 2 pork butts 9lbs each it should take approx 13.5 hrs for full cook. However what I am seeing is more like a 9-10hr full cook to 197-200 degrees after wrapping my protien within the 165-170 degree range. Is the different in full cook time due to the fact that I’m using boneless butts or is this a case where my temp is set to 225 degrees and it’s actually hotter than reading on my display? This has occurred with brisket as well.
