Welcome to the forum @JeffinMaine The pork shoulder looks great, nice job!

Thank you,
I found it kind of flavorless to be honest. It needed salt and sauce. I don't know what I expected really. Everyone said how good it was so it was just me probably, after I spent so much time with it I was expecting something out of this word I think. I would like to do something else just not sure what just yet. I've done Ribs and Bacon (man that comes out good).

I initially bought some "Special Shit" seasoning as a joke, but it's actually really good. It's my goto for Pork butts.

Amazon: Special Shit Premium All Purpose Seasoning (Original Version)​

We also use that seasoning to for pozole as well.

Welcome to the group and awesome job on that butt!! I did a 9# boneless from Costco 2 weeks ago. 13 hr cook @ 225. Pulled & wrapped it with butter and pineapple juice for the last stretch . Set the P setting on max. Fed 2 of us for over a week. CanNOT get enough of that. Cherry & competition blend pellets work very well too. Keep learning & perfecting. It only gets better!!
