During the last year or so I have been experimenting with different finishing internal meat temps to try and get the "perfect" pulled pork. For me this is pulled pork that still has some firmness to it when eaten yet is not greasy or hard to shred when pulling. For me the optimum internal meat temp is in the 175 - 185 range.
When I cook butts to 195 internal temp, the meat is way too soft. It pulls easy at this temp and shreds easy, but the meat is very soft.
For those of you that are finishing to 195, what is the finished product like? Is it soft? How does it compare to bbq joints that you eat at?
