  • Just about 19.5 hours on the DB. Overnight at 180 then up to 240 for the last 6 hours. Let them cool for about an hour and pulled. Did not even foil! That is six 10 lb pork shoulders.

  • Nice post!  Welcome!

    Do the bear claws get greasy and hard to handle?  You use them so I am gonna assume you like them?

  • I'll have a sandwich, thanks.

    Okay, so the photographs are rotated in the post but not if I click on the link.  I think QuadMan750 had the same situation.

  • Nice bark.

    Bentley, I have not used those bear claws, but have used the plastic ones.  I was not a fan of them.  I bought Meat Rakes and liked those better.  Most of the time lately, I just take 2 forks and use them to pull as the meat is already falling apart from being in the foil after the stall.

  • I normally put on the gloves and use my hands.  Next week I have to cook 26 Butts for my wife's church picnic so I bought a Stainless chopper that fits in a drill and I will be using that to shred the butts.  Tried the claws and I'm not a big fan of them.

  • OK, as I look closer, they are not bear claws...my mistake.  Have a friend that used to say, if the pork is cooked correctly all the way through all you need is two sturdy spatulas.  He would just use them like 2 cleavers in a metal steam try!  They did work.  I am a cool till I can touch and hand guy!.

  • I have never tried the claws but have always heard mixed results.  I usually put on a pair of gloves and pull by hand.

  • Yes a Roman, belongs to the guy that owns the Traeger Com 200 in the background.

  • I have a Roman too but have found that it shreds the pork vs pulling
    Sometimes I like bigger chuncks vs fine shred.
    YMMV

    Me too - after they rest and cool a bit.  I do not shred or chop, I try for big chunks and slices where I can.  After a couple hundred you know where the tubes, etc.  are and where the excess fat is.  I have the plastic claws but never used them....I just prefer it not look like of the chopped to powder Carolina stuff.  Just me.
