Well I haven't posted much this last year.... need to get off my butt and do that more.
Took these butts out of the freezer last Monday to thaw out. last night (Friday) got them
in the UDS at 11PM.
Always stock up butts when they put them on sale for $0.99/lb
Got the rub all mixed up
Using Hickory pellets
Got to love the UDS for overnight smokes. Got up at 3AM to add more pellets. And made
a small adjustment for the temp and went back to bed. At 7 this morning added more
pellets. So over 8 hours I had to adjust the temp only one time. I will go out and probe
the butts at noon today to see how close they are to being done. I like smoking them in
pans. That way its easy clean up in the smoker and can catch all the juice. after they are
done I will defat the juice and pour back over the pulled pork. Turns out I only had two pans.
And in a small town no place to run out to get another one. So the 10lbs one is just on the
grate. The juice will just drip on the one below. Not sure if I will foil or not. Will decided that
when it gets around 180 . Thinking about making some Cole Slaw to go with it.
Will post some more pictures when its done.
