Use Hog Waller heavy to start and finish with Hoochie Mamma. They cook fatser and retain more moisture if you wrap, I prefer closer to 180 and lately prefer the butcher paper over foil. Add some brown sugar and honey to the Sucklebusters original and take pictures of the trophy for us.

I'm not a pro but here's the Pulled pork Finishing Sauce I use

1 Cup Cider Vinegar
2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
1 Teaspoon Tony Chachere's Cajun Seasoning
1 Teaspoon Course Black Pepper
1 Teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
1/2 teaspoon sweet molasses (unsulfured preferred)

I use ketchup style squirt bottle make the sauce a few days before to let the flavors marry
