Daunting pork butt challenge with q view along the way

[djknutz00]

Nice smoke...looks like it all turned out great!!
I bet that nap afterwards will feel pretty good.

Definitely still up, and still running, it took all the smoke it could, we are around 155 on the smallest piece, and it's been as close to 4 hours as I feel safe to allow, below 140, so I moved it into a 350 degree oven to finish up to the 195 to 205, and get my bark set!!! Hoping that happens shortly, or it may make sir a long night, but it will all be worth it. Lol.

Looking good and I'm sure it'll taste even better!

I done 4 butts today myself, but I needed a nap.

You should be fine moving to the oven to finish. Good Luck!

IT IS FINISHED!!!! All pieces are within 195 to 203, it couldn't have come together any simpler than it has. Fought against problems, like the oven mysteriously powering off, caused by a loose plug behind it, but it is now complete.

Once it gets an hour and a half rest, I'll pull all but the big butt on the left, and see where it takes us, can't let it sit out overnight like this. Lol.
