    Pork Butt How to finish strong?

    I'm on hour 10 of my second butt IT is 187. Ill be pulling off at 195 double wrapping in tin foil then an old towel and letting it rest for 90mins or so then pulling. Only thing I get rid of is the bone for the dogs and remove some of the fat. Ill leave some in cause it taste good.
