9lb shoulder smoked overnight with applewood for 14hrs then rested for 3hrs. Pulled and served with fresh coleslaw on Hawaiian buns. It was a big hit. I‘m hooked.
Confession: when I woke up the this morning the dome temp had dropped to ~175. I had it stable at 275 for an hour before I went to bed. I’m assuming the drop was due to the vent being too closed, but if any more experienced Eggers have tips for avoiding this in the future I am all ears.

Looks good enough to eat to me. Better looking than my first attempt.
Now you need to try random pieces of meat. I am a huge fan of skirt steak, whole roasted chickens (wirh the egg ceramic beer can chicken thingie), and ribs both beef and pork.
Enjoy your new obsession
I just put an 8lb shoulder on the egg. Should be ready mid-morning for a cooler rest. 20yrs of egging and it never gets old. Welcome to the sweet addiction.
