Well, I decided to smoke a butt for tailgating this weekend. I usually smoke smaller butts(6-7lbs) but I got a 11lb for some odd reason. I plan on smoking it Friday afternoon/night and reheating it in an aluminum pan on the grill(w/ the coals set off to the side). But I'm wondering if I should smoke it fat cap up on this big of a butt, I've smoke all my others cap down, but I cook a brisket a week ago with cap up, and it was the juiciest briskest I've had. So I was wondering if I smoke it cap up, if it will be more tender? I have a offset horizontal w/ a baffle so I'm not worried too much w/ heat spikes and such.
Anyways, it should be a good weekend, I'm sure we'll all get stupid drunk and anything will taste good
