all wrapped up and ready for fridge, 12PM her now will start smoker about 4am tomorrow, and smoke with a mix of pitmasters from todd and mix in some Jack Danials pellets with it

Smoker only goes to 220* so will figure 2hrs lb LONG DAY but will be worth it. after 205IT plan on wrapping in foil and in a couple of towels then to cooler for about 1hr or so then pull them

Am I missing anything

Thanks Steve

More pics to come in the moning.

Sounds like a plan. Not sure what time you want to eat but keep in mind you may be looking at 8pm or later when you factor in rest time assuming you dont foil the butt during the smoke. Good luck!

I would pull and rest at 195, the temp will go up in the cooler wrapped. I never go over 200 intentionally

Mine took 2 hours last night to get through the stall...errr!

I was starving and ended up eating last night at 10 pm.

Looks like you're well on your way to a nice dinner today.

Looks great....I did the bone-less once...and will get the bone in from now on. That smoke (boneless) took over 20 hours for one of the 2 butts. Never again!

bryce · Dec 31, 2012

Too late - doesnt that suck? Boy these butts (even small) take a long time, BUT, they are definitely worth it!

Looks good Steve. You'll be feasting for a few days.
