Did you catch it right away or 6 hours later? There are tons of similar threads to read for you to search. Start here.

40 to 140 in 4...A Guideline and what to consider...

You will often see this called, " The Rule " here at SMF. This RULE, a Guideline actually, is the most frequently misquoted and misused info on SMF. More perfectly good meat has gone in the garbage at the hands of this," RULE " then from folks cleaning their Refrigerator or Freezer!!! Rules...

You've probably already made you decision but any ID of the IT of the meat ?
Injected or unadulterated?
At a true 275 for 3 hrs it should be 140ish range?

Yea.. More info is needed...

How long before you noticed it turned off/went out ?
Did you inject it ?
Did you do any trimming ?
Did you put a therm probe in it? If so what was the IT when the grill went out ?
Did you refire and continue cooking ?

All this is probably to late as I see your post was at 12:43 pm ...
And then you never even came back after posting to see if there were any reply's ...

If you caught it fairly quickly (not hours later) and the butt was bone in and not injected, I'd roll on with it.
