    First catering event!

    My cook for this event turned out perfect! Out of all the pork, finished I think it was just shy of 30 lbs and I brought home about 5 of that which I separated into 4 packs and froze. I also made about 22 lbs of dutchess wicked baked. I had 4 foil pans and 3 were put out leaving one in the...

    Ok, I'll be reheating these today, I don't usually do it like this so I'm wondering what temp to go to and how long do you think it will take?

    I have about 5 cups of juice from these, I'm gonna add a little bit of brown sugar and rub then reduce it and add it when its pulled. I do this when I make ribs and it makes a nice sweet and smokey sauce.

    Got them finished up! I saved the juice that was in the foil and put it through a fat separator which I'll warm back up tomorrow and add back to it after it's pulled.

    I'm firing up the Ole reliable cajun injector and I'm going to put 4 in here and 3 in the oven to finish them up. This thing hasnt seen anything but bacon or jerky in probably 5 years!

    I have those days as well where I just don't want to do anything. I'm 44 so I still get around pretty good considering but I'm slowing down.

    A few of these that were on the opposite side of the firebox stalled at about 150⁰ so I switched them around when I wrapped. I think I'll burn this fire down and put them in the oven

    I just wrapped them, usually when its just one butt or brisket I'll smoke them for 4 hours or so and then finish in the oven overnight. I may end up putting them in the oven if they'll fit. Unfortunately im starting to get kinda frustrated, I'm a paraplegic and I'm out here trying to do this by...

    I'm debating, but I'm thinking I may have to wrap so I can knock some time off my cook. They are varying from 150-160 now

    I'm debating not wrapping these. I've never cooked a butt all the way in a wood fired unit without wrapping. I'm using hickory splits.
