I was suppose to get some help from another SMF member

[johnd49455]

I am planning on smoking some butt for a graduation party for my daughter June 28 & I was suppose to get some help from another SMF member with a Lang 60 butt something else came up for them. I have 2 CG pro's with a side fire box butt I will be doing 50 to 100# of butt & probably 6 batches of Dutches wicked baked beans.
I am hoping to find someone to help with ether a bigger smoker or someone to hang out with for a couple of nights smokin meat to get all that done for the party.

I have off work starting on the Tuesday before so I will have the time to get it done but the moral support would be great too.

Is anyone interested in West Michigan

Wish I was closer, I'd love to give a hand! I know someone here can help you out. Have faith.

I wish you were closer too, butt I think I can do it with the equipment I have. It would be nice to have company doing 50 to 100# of meat & 6 or more batches of Dutches wicked baked beans.

What is the best way to find out when all the butts are done

I am putting on 8 butts of different sizes (66.8# total) & I have 3 temp probes. I will be using both of my CG's. I don't want to keep moving the probe & sticking holes in the butts. Do I put them in the smallest & shen they get done start checking the big ones, or do I put them in the biggest & figure the small ones will be OK because I am pulling & a higher temp than 195* won't hurt the little ones

i think your on to it with probing the smaller ones,then as they get done move it to the next one.my .02 worth anyway

Please don't...there are already enough buttholes around.

AND ...categorize this under "Things that sound dirty, but really aren't..."

WOW what a week...

The day before my vacation to start prep for the open house I lost my job

In spite of that the smoke went great & the butt was great. I was on an emotional roller coaster & didn't think to get q-view

. sorry

Thanks for all the help.

I did get a part time job for Jeff Clark (organizer of the Silver Lake comp.) at his restaurant. At least for now it will supplement the unemployment.

I so wanted to make it to Taste of Grand Rapids.. now with a car that gets 12 MPG ($.35 per mile & 150 mile round trip) no can go with no income to pay for $4.00+ per gallon gas.

Hope to see a good turn out at the Silver Lake Comp.
