Hey guys, I have been trolling these forums since I got my smoker around three weeks ago but this will be my first post. Today I am doing my first Boston Butt for this great country's birthday (although we won't be eating it until firework time most likely due to my friend Jack).
So pictured above is the butt going into my MES 30 at 235 with the vent wide open. Last night it was rubbed with my favorite rub and put in plastic wrap overnight in the fridge. I am using a blend of woods about 60/40 applewood/hickory. Updates to follow! I planned on leaving it in until 200 degrees then pulling it to foil and rest, any thoughts?
