Pork Shoulder & Prime Rib at the same time ?

[Ronjon Kuz]

I have smoked a prime rib for Christmas dinner for a coupe of years and loved it.

Is it also possible to smoke a pork shoulder on the lower grill at the same time as I am cooking the prime rib?

The recipe says to fill the container with water for the prime rib...will that make the pork shoulder too
grey'?

Thanks

Ron

I always fill the water pan. I've never had an issue with my butts turning gray. Have you?

I am in agreement with Vern, I always use water in the pan and have never had grey meat. To me, the water just helps keep the temps stable.
