 I agree with Dave and Jimmy. I like to cut it into chunks and pull apart, this way it reheats better.

Greg, the guys have covered it, but I concur with the probe "center mass," not touching the bone.  I pull my pork with bear claws (plastic "bear claw" looking devices).  You can pull as fine, or coarse, as you like.  I tend to pull mine in the traditional Southern style - fairly fine.  Packs better on a sammie that way! ;)

Here's pre-smoke thru consumable art. Turned out pretty good for a rookie.

Thanks for all the help. Next wil be a brisket.
