Well here it is, off the grill, pulled and vacuumed. Some small bags for friends laid low with COVID.
Thanks for the tips, will report back.

Some questions:
1. This was a 7lb butt and took 12hrs in the BGE (7.5@250deg then tinfoil boat, then 4.5@300deg). This strikes me as a long time for this weight of meat - is it..?
2. My BGE ran out of fuel after 11 hours. Firebox was full at the start, but it was a lot of small bits from the bottom of the (BGE brand) lump bag. Is 11 hours a normal run time for a BGE?

Thanks!
