cooking time for a 10 lb pork shoulder
A 10-12LB pork shoulder cooked at 225 for about 14 hours is done. You'll use probably 25LBs of charcoal to achieve this, and your hair will smell like smoke for 2-3 days even after washing.:). I only apply smoke to shoulder/butt for the first 4 hours or so...after that it doesn't do much good other than dry it out.f you'll be smoking your pork shoulder at 200Â°F, it could take an awful long time to smoke, maybe 2 or more hours per pound. If at all possible, smoke your shoulder at a higher temperature, around 220 degrees.
