Hello folks!
Have two Boston Butts on the WSM for the first time.
Loaded the charcoal ring with 20 lbs of KB, apple and cherry chunks. Pan is full with water. Wasn't paying close attention but it took around 30-45 min. to get TBS. Steady as she goes at 225°F. KC rub on one, Emeril's Original Essence w/brown sugar on the other. Not sure if I will foil or not, will see how things go, though I'm leaning towards not. Probably after 4 hrs of smoking I'll spritz every hour or so, if I'm awake that is :) No meat probe... will use the thermapen to track IT. It's going to be a long night..... right now it's 66°, down to 58° between 4 - 5 am and climbing back up to 77° by noon, 0% chance for rain. To keep me busy, soon I'll be slicing 9 lbs eye of round for jerky.
Hopefully everything goes well........ we shell see
