The Boston butt temp has plateaued as of 11 a.m. Frustrating.
Had to tend the fire, butt temp went down to 190 from a high of 194. Grrrrrrrr...
Should be fine though...
Temps were dropping off at 2:30 so i did a major fire tend.

The resultant video, while it has nothing whatsoever to do with this Butt over Brisket project, was too damn hilarious not to share.
Excellent read, thank you. Wish I had read it yesterday instead of today, as my brisket is all rubb'd up & ready to go. Oh well, I'm sure it'll turn out fine & I'll trim fat next time.
