Looks like a fine job for your first smoke! I'm not smoking anything this weekend since we will be smoking all next weekend at the gathering.
Think i'll cook a pot of chicken an dumplings and a pot of spaghetti and meat balls tomorrow.

Cool deal speck chaser....now that you got that first smoke out of the way, it only gets better from here on out...

Your pulled pork looks awesome. It has a nice bark on it.

This is the famous south Fla. qers finishing sauce.
Best stuff you can put on your butt!

1 Cup Cider Vinegar
2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
1 Teaspoon Tony Chachere's Cajun Seasoning
1 Teaspoon Course Black Pepper
1 Teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes

Warm the Vinegar up enough so that it disolves the Sugar well. Then add the remaining ingredients.

I use it in one of those clear Ketchup bottles you can get from Wally World for about $0.99. Snip a little bit larger hole out of the spout with a pair of scissors. Once all your ingredients are mixed together, put your finger over the top, and shake vigorously.

Randomly squirt this over warm freshly pulled Pork, then kind of mix it up with gloved hands. This adds very little heat (despite the Red Pepper) and mellows out the stronger, gamier parts of the Shoulder. The Vinegar also helps break it down even more for some REAL juiicy pork

Yep.....that recipe eman posted is the stuff. It will really bring your pullled pork to life..

I have been doing some homework to find my preference on the sauce. I got 13 variations saved to try. Mustard, vinegar and ketchup based variations. Eman I used a similar variation of your sauce last time I did a butt. Here it is:

1 C white vinegar
1 C cider vinegar
1 Tbs. sugar (Hawaii style when you can)
1 Tbs. cayenne pepper (fresh ones split 2 of em instead soak 2 days or more is best)
1 Tbs. Tabasco sauce
1 tsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. cracked black pepper
Makes 2 Cups
Place in a bottle with small neck that will allow you to shake it out a little at a time.

I will let yall know if I find one that stands out.
