- 1 Gather all ingredients.

- 3 Preheat an outdoor smoker for 200 to 225 degrees F (95 to 110 degrees C). Place a roasting rack in a drip pan. While grill preheats, in a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, chili powder and any additional seasonings to your taste.
- 4 Apply this liberally to the meat and rub it in with your fingers.
- 5 Place a roasting rack in a drip pan and lay the meat on the rack.
- 6 Smoke at 200 to 225°F (95 to 110°C) for 6 to 18 hours, or until internal pork temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
