    Interesting idea

    I just can't help but think it would be prone to hot spots...

    Costco's vs Sam's club

    I always think of tying it up as I'm trying to "pull" it (desperately trying to tear pork that should be sliced...)

    Costco's vs Sam's club

    Wanted to drop one or the other, but Costco has our favorite paper goods and coffee pods, and Sam's has the double pack of bone-in butts. I have never had any luck with boneless butts.

    It's time to bottle!

    Looking good, Bama!  I can't believe that Pearly Gates is still open!  My brother got his first HB supplies there probably 30 years ago (IIRC).  When I was cooking down on Airport Road ~20 years ago, it was the only place in town to get anything 'organic'.  I'll need to swing by there next time...

    Thanks for the welcome, all! smokin_momma and Teamfatman76: If I may make a suggestion...why not start a new thread with your introduction? Looks like the welcome wagon around here is right friendly, and I'd hate them to miss a chance to greet you personally!

    Well, just joined up here, looking for some inspiration and a way to kick my smoking up a notch. Until I started looking around here, I THOUGHT I was doing a decent 'low and slow'... now I see I might as well have been slapping pork butts on the grill! My new friend will be named 'minion'...
