So, my first thoughts on the temperature control were unfounded! The last two hours were perfect! The second hour I used three fist sized chunks of pecan, and had to add some air when it started dropping to about 200. Left the air open for about 5 minutes and closed it up! Third hour I added only two chunks of pecan and after about 45 minutes it started to drop again so added air for just a couple minutes! Internal temperature was 168!!!
They are wrapped now, think I will try and keep them 190-200 for near two hours. Then glaze!...Then rest a few minutes. ..THEN THE FANGS GET TO DO WHAT THEY ARE MEANT TO DO!!!

Oh oh man! :hungry:
Turned out pretty freakin awesome I must admit. Little darker on the appearance than expected. Maybe the chile powder or paprika? I had no sugar in the rub.
I am super pleased with the taste of the rub. Smokin with the pecan hickory combo was perfect as well. Can taste both, but the pecan really did set it off!
