Okay today I smoked and 8lb Boston Pork Butt. Smoked the pork butt until the fat split then I wrapped it aluminum foil for until the internal temperature got to 190-195° Then I wrapped it a beach towel and placed it in a cooler for 45 mins. I had the smoker holding a temp between 225-270 degrees hit the pork butt with Apple cider juice once and hour. Used Royal Oak lump charcoal then added 3 sticks of hickory wood inc stick every hour for the first 3 hours. Anyway enough of the chitchat here are some pictures.

Thank you Joe,

It worked! The brisket came out really good. I think if I would do anything different, it would be to wrap it sooner. After wrapping, it went from 180 to 204 within half an hour.

Pink flamingo, yeah on a brisket I would wrap it just when it's hits around 165° if you're going to wrap it all, Some wrap with foil some use butcher paper to each their own everybody has their own preference. Tomorrow I'm going to do a whole brisket and we will see how turns out, I'll wrap it around the 5 or 6 hour mark have to see how it smokes [emoji]128077[/emoji]. Early morning long smoke look for some pictures tomorrow. Happy Smokin' :grilling_smilie:
