    My first Butt.... (Updated: The Butt is Done - Qview)

    The Butt finished last night at 11:30pm for a 23.5 hour smoke. Next time I will plan a little better and start it earlier. I pulled it from the smoker at 203 degrees and wrapped in foil and let it sit in a cooler for 30min before pulling. It pulled pretty easily. I hadn't eaten all night so I...

    Digital Thermometer Question - Different Reading using different probes

    I was able to get the good thermometer synced and both were reading within 2 degrees of each other. I guess using a different probe will impact the results.

    My first Butt.... (Updated: The Butt is Done - Qview)

    Here is the latest picture of the butt.. 19 hours into the smoke and things seem to be progressing well. The pork is at 183. The bone looks like it is popping out a little and the juices are really starting to drip. I was able to get the other thermometer working again and both thermometers were...

    My first Butt.... (Updated: The Butt is Done - Qview)

    I had a little setback with my meat thermometer. I have two digital thermometers, one has worked well for me and the other is a little cheaper and used as a backup. I hooked up my good thermometer (wireless) and it wouldn't sync. So I took out my back up thermometer and connected the probe from...

    My first Butt.... (Updated: The Butt is Done - Qview)

    Yes, The top vent is wide open. No moisture on the mailbox. It is actually smoking well now. Not sure what happened last night. I followed the directions and let it burn for 10min before placing it in the mailbox. It went out before the 10min was over. I lit it again and kept blowing on it to...

    My first Butt.... (Updated: The Butt is Done - Qview)

    Here are some pictures of the setup. I bought a cart from Sams and I am using the mailbox mod. I added the fan to help with air flow.

    My first Butt.... (Updated: The Butt is Done - Qview)

    Update!!! I put the butt on last night around midnight at 230 degrees. Had my oak AMNPS smoking when I went to bed. When I woke up at 9am this morning there was no smoke. I was a little concerned and opened up my mailbox to see about half of it burned. So I am guessing it got about 5 hours of...

    My first Butt.... (Updated: The Butt is Done - Qview)

    I went with oak since that was the only one I had out of the two options. The butt is in the smoker. I was having a difficult time keeping my pellets lit. I microwaved them before adding them to the holder, but they didn't stay lit. I had to relight them and ended up putting a fan pointing at my...
