Good morning from southeast Texas my fellow meay smoking enthusiast. I am running two bone in butts for the first time. I have smoked numerous boneless. Thought i would take you on my journey. Here are some prep and starting pics. Smkoer is climbing to 250. I will try and keep everyone posted thru the smoke ride.

Started with a yellow mustard massage to allow my own season dry rub to stick.

Four Hours in. Here is a juicy shot of mid term butt. Top piece is 150F. Looking strong.

If you're looking, you're not cooking.   Check probe tender around 195* and see if it needs more.   Looks great though!

Just opening up midway for photo op. Next time will be to finish them off. I typically shut the door and let it go until temp is reached. Got a moisture pan so the meat doesnt dry out.

First one done after 10 hours. Great bark and pulled apart great. The bone came out clean as a whistle.
