I usually set the meat out on the counter while i prep the smoker, temp gauge and such.  Usually takes me about 30mins.  Enough to get some chill off the meat.   I just picked up 18.76lbs of pork butt from Sam's Club Friday after work.  Couldn't pass up $1.98/lb.  Started the two about 7:30am and took it off about 5:45pm to sit in the cooler for 45mins or so before tearing into.  I couldn't wait for the super bowl.  I have to say this also.  A lot said about 40-60% lost in cooking on pork.  Post cook that 18.76lbs rendered 15.5lbs of shredded pork.  Nowhere near 40% loss.  Happy Porkin'!

Missouri,

Hope you don't mind me posting a pic or so on your thread, just thought I would share that I got my WSM fired up at about 12:15am, meat went on just before 1:00am

predicting snow all night and early morning, maybe as much as 3 inches (although I doubt we will get that much).  So I pulled the old 10X10 tarp out for a cover

here it is smoking away.  I need to head to bed soon though. 

ps my wife does think I am officially bat crazy, but oh well.
