Re: Shoulder @300F ?
When roasting pork I will only ever use the kneck end / collar now (top part of shoulder). Cooking at 350 in essence this is what you are doing, bloody lovely!
Re: Shoulder @300F ?
Did it still pull ok after being cooked at that temp?

Re: Shoulder @300F ?
If you think of the meat in standard terms any fatty meat will pull if you over cook it ie to a higher temp

Surprisingly yes, very very well, it was soft as 'buttah'Artust wrote:Did it still pull ok after being cooked at that temp?

Re: Shoulder @300F ?
If there is no difference in cooking in half the time then aren't we all just wasting time? In cooking terms 4 hours is still slow but considerably faster than a 225f 8-12 hr cook.
I'm trying the complete opposite and cooking at dead on 225 today for the whole cook. I normally go around the 250-260 mark.
Looking forward to see how you get on with this one

Re: Shoulder @300F ?
There are massive differences number one being what happens to the fat. Cooked my last lot of pork at 200 (because I wanted some sleep) then ramped it up to 250, took a long time but was by far the best I have cooked for a while

Wasn't expecting a stall at this temp but seems I've hit one, now 163F/342F
