We are having a b-day party on Saturday morning at 11am and I am going to attempt a butt :). I've read up a lot and have three questions I was hoping you guys could help with.
1) What should I expect Re: cooking time? I bought a 7-8lb butt from Costco. Its lean, not much fat.
2) How long do I burn my AMPS for?
3) What pellets should I use? I have Hickory, Maple, Cherry & Pittmasters choice.
Other than this, I'm pretty set. It's been dry brining since this aftenoon. Sitting in the fridge (uncovered). Should I cover it? Tomorrow morning I will add the rub, then then put it in the smoker at 225F. I dont plan to foil. Thanks guys!
