Electric smokers are great because they're really forgiving. you don't have to do all the "baste this every 45 minutes and let all the heat out" steps that a lot of online recipes say. If you're doing a shoulder/butt you can just put a rub on (can put yellow mustard on the meat first), let it sit in the fridge for a lil while, and throw it in at 215-225 for 6-10 hours depending on the size (if you have an electric thermometer then it's really set it and forget it). I like to take it out at 170 and then wrap it in foil and then finish it off in the oven or back in the smoker until 180-190 and let it rest for an hour or so. some places say to pull until 200 but idgaf.
if you like your pulled pork obliterated then take it out at a higher temp
actually same goes for ribs, usually you can do a wiggle test. I hate ribs that have been cooked to oblivion, but i think that's pretty popular for some reason.
also, you can rub compound butter on chicken breast and then lattice bacon all over that sucker and cook till its done.
yeh the flavor isnt the issue for me tho, its the texture
