New Big Green Egg + Boston Butts + Beautful Weather = BEST DAY EVER

[oldironhead]

So this past Saturday was GORGEOUS in SC, and having splurged recently on a Medium Big Green Egg, I felt compelled to smoke these Boston Butts. Nothing really new here. I did not brine them. Rinsed them and patted dry. I put French's Mustard and Lawry's on one. I put Lawry's and some Walmart brand (I think- it was my late husband's) Texas BBQ rub on the other. Put them on the Egg about 8 am and pulled them off about 5:40pm. Was able to keep the temp around 250 all day. Maybe the best pulled pork I've ever had...

Thanks everybody! In my zeal, I also did some brined chicken breasts and some mac'n'cheese. Now that the grill is "seasoned" I can try some ribeyes!! :)

(And, yeah, the dog seems quite interested whenever the cooking on the deck starts up)
