lessons learned from smoking 100 lbs of butt

[caspian]

First off, there is a crazy difference in timing even with dealing with similar size pieces of meat.

Second.  Doing the final temp raise (double wrapped in foil in a foil pan) to the final temp is a huge time difference when done on a smoker vs. a convection oven.  I had so much meat finishing at different times, i split them for the final finish.  We're talking 2 hours difference with the smoker being way quicker.  I think it acts like a turbo convection oven.

Finally the pict...or it didn't happen.
