after sitting there wrapped for another 3.5 hrs the temp slowly rose to 200 where it was taken off for a sneaky look before letting it rest

Image

the smell was amazing ,

after letting it rest for half hour , and the smell drivng us crazy we couldn't resist , we had to carve it up

Image

Image

the flavour was amazing , and a nice smoke ring too

to be honest id like it to have a bit more fat on the next one , to render down through the meat
but as it was my first crack at it , not a bad effort

looks juicy which is great, one bit of advice, always remember to cut across the grain.
