ingredients

1 ¹⁄₂ tablespoons paprika
1 ¹⁄₂ tablespoons black pepper
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon dry ground mustard
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
6 -8 lbs pork shoulder

directions

Combine dry ingredients, making sure to break up any sugar clumps. Reserve 1/4 cup of rub for later. Rub pork with remaining rub and place in large ziplock or aluminum foil and refrigerate overnight or until ready to smoke.
Before smoking pork, re-rub with 1/4 cup of rub. Let pork come to room temp while smoker heats up to 220-240 degrees, about 45 minutes.
Smoke pork for 3 hours, then to speed up cooking and keep pork moist, wrap pork in heavy duty foil for remainder of smoking time. Pork will take at least 2 hours per pound to reach an internal temp of 195 degrees. If smoker cooks too low or if it's taking too long, put the foil-wrapped pork in the oven at 250 degrees to finish.
When pork reaches internal temp of 195 degrees. Remove from smoker and place a heavy duty towel over foil-wrapped pork for 30 minutes-3 hours.
Shred or pull pork with two forks or your hands, making sure to distribute the seasoned outer pieces with the inner pieces. Serve with your favorite sauce!
