    new found fact of life in Utah

    It seems that every time I have a long smoke to do ( sixteen butts eight at a time back to back) the wind and rain show up about the time I get the smoker fired up. I think this is a new found fact of life in Utah. Mark

    Well this is the week of the reunion and I am going to cook the butts in two batches about 70 pounds per batch that way I can handle the shelves to rotate them so I get an even cook on the butts.

    reheating pulled pork in large quantity

    I have a home made smoker that is made out of an old fridge and I can cook about 150 pounds of meat ( pork butts ) it is a little tight but there is still room for air and smoke circulation. It is propane fired and thermostaticly controlled I think it works quite well. Mark

    smokin 140* pounds of pork butts

    that was my guess about 24 hrs for that much meat mass but I am not sure. I was thinking about giving my self 26 to 28 hours and if it is done early I can just turn down the smoker to about 190* and let it hold until they are ready. Mark ps, Not quite up and around yet had six trips to the ER...

    smokin 140* pounds of pork butts

    I need to figure out how much longer it will take to smoke 140 pounds of pork butt. The most I have done to date is 40 pounds which took 18 hours at 225* in my propane fired refrigerator smoker. It will hold all 140 pounds with out the butts touching each other. They will be real close together...
