Got my offset fired up on Sunday to do a 5 lb. boneless butt and one of the fatties, I picked up while vacationing in the states (JDs not available in Canada) ... also put some ABTs to give me strength ...
Now, I gotta say ... I have judged a few competitions and none were better than what I pulled Sunday night ....... Hot Dang!!!!
Had some heat control issues ( still trying to get a working baffle ) and the butt took about 10 hrs.
Foiled @ 168º and because I use propane in my offset, I just turned it off when it read 196º and left it sitting in the smoker for another hour or hour and a half? ( Not sure had another beer with my neighbor ) didn't towel or put in cooler to rest .... when I came back the therm was 'up' 1º to 197º , which made me grin
I apologize for not having any pix ... left the camera at home! DOH!!!!
