this is too late, but with hot-smoking it's essential, really, to get a meat thermometer as time taken will vary a lot more than a standard oven.

For a joint of pork:
Smoking Method
Preheat the Bradley Smoker to 90�C (200�F). Using Apple flavor bisquettes and leaving the damper closed smoke/cook for 6 to 10 hours depending on the size of your roast.
And therein lies the problem, as jpj pointed out:
To cook meat safely so that E.Coli 0157, Salmonella and Listeria are killed, the centre of the meat must reach a core temperature of at least 70�C for 2 minutes or the equivalent.
Equivalent Core Cooking Time / Temperature
60�C 45 minutes
65�C 10 minutes
70�C 2 minutes
75�C 30 seconds
80�C 6 seconds
Hope this helps,
