Its off now and actually its been a success. Really moist and pulls lovely with fingers. Its now wrapped in foil in a towel in a cool box.
I just hope it stays hot long enough.

What time you serving it? I've held one for coming up to 4 hours and it was fine. And I take it that you haven't fully pulled it yet?

It came off the smoker at 7.10 this morning. I wrapped it in foil and a towel and stuck it in a cool box. I pulled it after my sons christening at about half 12. It was warm and still lovely and tender. Went down a treat. The pork was first to go so I was over the moon. I had people tell me. I should do catering as a business and my gfs dad thought I had ordered all the food in.
Si it was nerve wrecking but it was a good learning curve. Bring on round two
