I got it up to 195, I had it in the smoker for 5-6 hours until I started to get a headache so I ended up wrapping it up in foil and sticking it in the oven for the last 35-40 degrees while I took a nap. I think it could have used more rub on it also it barely had any bark to it, it could also be that I finished it in the oven. I am def going to be trying it again in a few weeks
and maybe try charcoal to start and wood for the rest
you will get her with some practice.
