Hey all,
Decided to do a pork butt today. Doing this on a MES 40 with a Amazn Pellet box. Hit the butt with mustard and rub last night and let it sit in the refrig. Got up at 5:00 AM this morning to get the show started. Here is how it looked this morning before going on the smoker
Here it is at the 3 hour mark. Hit it with a little spritz and put the temp probe in.
Smoking this at about 240. Everything seems good so far. Butt is 7 lbs and is sitting at about 125 after the probe settled in. 15 more degrees to get into the safety zone. I plan to foil at 165 and let run up to 205, will let it rest in a cooler for an hour and then pull. I will then hit it with some finishing sauce before serving. I am also doing some of Dutch's beans later as well. Will post more pics as the day progresses.
