like raptor said...if you cut them in half, it will decrease your smoke time
Why would it take a few hours longer????possibly a few hours more..but one can stall temp wise while the other gets to temp real quick. its really hard to tell
Two 8 lb butts won't really take any longer than doing one. Just tell the meat guy you want a boston butt and he should show you exactly what you want. If the smoke seems too long or you have problems then smoke it to 165 internal foil it and put it into the oven at 225 to finish
