    best mes 40?

    All I ever had was the new 2.5 BT. It was a gift from the wifey. $329 at SAMs and comes with the stand. If money is an issue get the gen 1. Stay away from the gen 2

    why so many internal temps. for boston butt?

    pork is done at 165. I pull it at 195 if I'm gonna Be letting it rest in towels in a cooler longer than an hour, otherwise I take it out of the smoker at 203 and let it rest for 30 minutes to an hour. I find butts pull better at 203.
