Folks,
I have looked through the pork forum here. How many of you foil your butts at 165? How many do not? I have done butts 3 times without foiling until I pull them from the smoker to rest. Several responses to my previous posts hint that I should have foiled sooner to save the "juice". I have found that the butts pull easily after resting in foil. The bone literally pulls out clean. The meat is tender and moist. There is little "juice" in the foil pack.
Will I have more "juice" if I double wrap in HD foil at 165, and then cook to 195, followed by a rest in the cooler? Will the "bark" be as good?
Regards,
Mewoey
