Do you have a secondary digital thermometer to verify temps of cook chamber and meat ? Probe tender "not temp " is key.

Do you have a independent temp gauge for your CC? The gauges that come with most smokers are notoriously inaccurate, 3 butts wouldn't take 24 hours or more. RAY

You have two options here.

Option #1: Let them ride it out in the Pit Boss.
OR
Option #2: Pan them in aluminum pan with a little apple juice etc, cover the pans tighly in foil and put them in a 300 degree oven to finish at probe tender.

If you're pressed for time, then option #2 is the better choice.
