How early? If it is only a few hours. I would wrap it in foil and towels and put it in a cooler. It will hold temp fairly well like that. If you have 8 or 10 you can cool it and reheat it. I usually run late so finishing early is not my area of expertise.

Thanks @akdutchguy normally not my issue either but this one cooked pretty quickly. Going to let it rest for an 1 1/2 hour then throw it in the fridge. Dinner isn't until 3/4
Al this might be a dumb question but, I'm guessing the temp will drop down to 170 through out the day? @smokinAl. Also, ok to do the same with two pork butts?
I would do the wrapped in cooler or wrapped in the oven. It'll just get tenderer and you don't have to re-heat.
If you do the cooler wrap it frees your oven up for other things ;-)
