First post...
Anyone have a preference for which cut of shoulder comes out best on a WSM.
I tried the picnic cut but never the butt. I haven't quite gotten the picnic cut to be a moist enough cut to pull similar to some of the photos I've seen of the butt cuts. The last one I smoked was taken off at 190 and foil wrapped for another 2 hours but needed to be sliced rather than pulled.
I did baste once before foiling.
I believe the picnic comes out drier and cooks quicker because most are leaner cuts.
Any thoughts?
