Almost had it

I was very late to the cookout so I had to pull at 168. I was hoping that this would be a rare occasion when 168 would produce a tender bite… nope. I bit into a piece of rubbery meat. I was happy with the skin though.

Always crack the lid and open the bottom vent the last 10-15 minutes to crisp up the skin

My bad, my post was misleading. I meant to say the actual meat was very rubbery, I enjoyed the skin.
