Great day for a first attempt at a Pork Butt "Boston Butt"....

[brady311]

Well I have been away from the forum for a few weeks, but the weather in Maryland today is perfect for smoking a Boston Butt. I rubbed it down yesterday and let it sit in the fridge overnight. I started it at about 6:00AM with my 7 year old son who is now becoming a smoking fanatic. I am using apple wood chunks for smoke and maintaining 250 degrees F. Attached is some Q-View with more to follow. This is my first pork butt and second cook on the WSM.

The last picture is about 4 hours in. I snapped the pic before I put in the temp probe.
