180 C would be like 350 F. If you were cooking below 350, that's not possible.
I usually foil mine after about half my smoke time, and when I pull it, wrap it in towels and put it in a cooler for at least an hour.
If you cut right into it, any moisture left in the meat bled out, which is why it was dry.
Did it have a fat cap or was it trimmed?
