TEXAS STYLE BUTT

[bworthy]

I thought I would try something different, so found this recipe from Malcom Reed. Texas style pork butt, used 50/50 Kosher salt and CBP instead of my usual modified Jeff’s rub. Smoked at 250° with oak for the smoke for 6 hours, color and bark just right. IT was at 163°, wrapped in butcher paper and back on for about another 4 hours. I have never wrapped my pork butts before, always just let them go! Temp at 203° and probed tender. Let it rest for about 2 hours then pulled. Vacuum sealed for future use, but not before having a few bites! Man, I think this turned out better than any previous attempts. Will be making sandwiches for dinner tonight.

Butt looks great! I haven't wrapped a butt yet in paper but planning on it next time I do one. Recently did ribs in paper and they were some of the best ones yet! Enjoy the sandwiches!

Edit...paper not foil!

Smoke the whole time or until you wrapped in paper

I'm with you John, I haven't either but for the time it saves I'm thinking of giving wrapping a shot. Might as well, I got a big roll of paper last summer that's just been sitting untouched. If they come out looking like @bworthy 's it'll be fine with me, that looks great, Like! RAY

I tend to wrap after the stall begins with paper. They always are juicy with a decent bark as well.

That does look fine.

I've always wrapped butts in foil but I've been seeing a lot of folks using paper lately. I'm going to give it a try.
Nice looking P.P.

The last time I smoked a butt I also tried vac sealing some pulled port. I got to say that is the way to go to have pulled pork at a later time. Taste just like the day I smoked it.

Nice looking butt, now I am in the mood to do a butt myself.

I pretty much always seal some up, makes for a lot of different meals. Love making tacos with the PP.
