Default Essence

Guys,

I picked up a 14 lb. boneless pork shoulder cryo-packed
from Costco. It doesn't have much of a fat cap.

Question one: Has anyone ever tried using Emeril's
Essence as a rub?

I am thinking of cutting the shoulder into two 7 lb.
blocks. Then I thought I would rub one with Essence and the
other with CYM, salt, & pepper.

Question Two: With the limited fat and no bone will I
have to baste this baby or can I water pan it without it
drying out?

Putting it on the new CG Duo about 6AM tomorrow using
hickory and lump. I have never made pulled pork so I have
never smoked anything into the 190+ degrees F range. Could
be a learning experience with the new smoker.

Joseph
