Smoking pork butt

[Compulsive Smoker]

Hey, it's all one big experiment anyway lol.

So the end result was great. My wife said it was awesome and I thought it was good too (she was coming from the perspective of looking for a specific style, I wasn't so focused).

The smoke ring didn't seem to me to be the best, but there was some of it there.

Basically, we ran it 225 for about four hours while keeping cherry on tap, then we ramped up to 275 until it hit 165 internal, and we then wrapped it in foil and cranked the temp up to 350 to get it to 205 internal. Seems to have worked well.

That looks great to me! I’d be happy with that!
