Smoking 2 Pork Butts

[mandm25]

Hey Guys, 

I may be over thinking this but I am going to be smoking two pork butts in my MES30. Does anyone do anything to prevent drippings from the top Butt as they will be on different Racks? Or is that just more Flavour to the mix? 

Thanks!!

moar flavor = moar better

AND , there's more mass in the smoker making a stable heat ,,, smoke away , place a drip pan to catch the juices , use it for au-Jus

I would make a point of allowing the top butt to drip juices on the bottom butt.

I find it strange that we are all talking about our butts on the internet. Then we are talking about a butt dripping on another butt. So since the subject is already started. I say get them butts in the smoker with a drip pan to catch all of those wonderful drippings. Oh and don't forget to post pics of you butts.

Happy smoken.
