    this is probably not the craft for you then, maybe stick to ribs and birds

    You haven’t even got to The Stall yet Sir.

    Be patient.

    Just power through. What’s the rush?

    Wrap that boy up, you could even consider increasing the grill temp depending on where you are. I get just as good results cooking at 300F that I did when I used to torture myself with cooking at 225F.

    Are you cooking at 190f? If so, that’s your problem. The closer the meat gets to the ambient temperature the longer it takes.

    Foil like some said here, or boost the temp 25 or so until you get movement then bring it back down.

    Relax man. Grab a whiskey and sip on it a while. If you’re still angry, pour a second whiskey. Rinse and repeat this until the stall is over or you’re feeling better.

    I started smoking in the 235° to 250° range and rarely if ever get a stall. I can’t tell any difference between what I do now and holding at 225°

    I learned to be patient, seasoned meat out on the counter overnight, to my “cold” smoker “. For 6 hours or whatever. 140F is fine these days for pork as trich is out commercial pork. But I guess yah once it’s done smoking / cooking wrap it up and put it in the oven on the lowest temp with some extra liquid and whatever, makes pulled pork a bit easier

    Wrap in foil and put it in the oven at 225 until it hits 205. Did 5 this way yesterday and they came out amazing.
