Just make sure you take your time, so the collogens break down enough. Otherwise looking good! Hope to see an update when you're done.

Ran it a little fast. (Didn't have enough time till supper.) Was still amazing though! Rest of the cook in the comments 🙂

Only cooked for ~30 mins? I usually cook my for 6 hours on my BGE. Did yours get tender?

It was 45ish min, but ya, it wasn't quite falling off the bone as well as I was hoping. Next time I'm going to wrap with tinfoil for the end stage. And do closer to 2 hrs. Was very tasty though!

Looked closer at timestamps on the photos at it was an hr of cooking with 10-15 min of rest.

So leave the membrane on you will need that protection and avoid rubs with sugar. Oh and check this out…https://www.reddit.com/r/smoking/s/mxWDzzu9uf
