Cooked a 10lb Butt today on my Brickman. Cut it in 4 pieces....put it on at 6 AM and it was done at 190 by 4:30. Put barbecue sauce on wrapped it in tin foil put it in the oven for an hour until 194 degrees. I used sand in my water pan. I tasted it and it was delicious. Most of it was pull-able

I got my name from when I was a little boy........my uncle called me t-baby, a nickname for T.A., my real nane. Brings back sweet memories.

You may want to take the next one a little higher to 205, then it will pull real easy!

Take it to 205 like Al says and then rest it wrapped in foil and then in old towels in a cooler. Rest it as long as you can. I have rested them as long as overnight before. You are close you just need to take it a bit further.
