I guess you would need to supply any questions you may have before advice can be given :-)

Welcome from Middle TN! My only advice is patience. Meat can have a mind of its own a lot of times!

Welcome from another Jeff in Ohio, I’m hour and a half north of you in Willard. Pork butt is virtually indestructible. Pick a good rub, rub the butt with a thin coat of mustard or oil. Apply rub liberally as rest overnight. Now on cook temp you will get a lot of opinions. I’ve settled in on cooking them faster at 275F. When you stall at 160F cover it in a pan with a cup of apple juice or chicken broth. Throw it in a cooler zcooler when the meat hits 205F for about a half hour then pull. If you want some extra juice which I always do put a pan of chicken broth and spices under the butt. It will catch the drippings and smoke. It’s liquid gold to mix into the pulled meat.

Welcome to the forum! Im about 1hr 45min north west of Columbus. @jcam222. Has you covered on the pork butts. Exactly how I do mine. Hope to see some of your cooks in the future!

Now brisket is another story. Lots of reading to do on that. It’s a much harder cook than pork butt. Trimming one is an art ive yet To master. I do inject mine. If your first one doesn’t come out great join the club :) Mine are ok now but something I’m still working on. I am a big believer in Butcher BBQ prime brisket injection.

Advice? Maybe some punctuation and elaboration? My drunken, tired butt is having a hard time figuring out what you're asking.
