A buddy of mine bought a 7 lbs butt at a local butcher that he has asked me to smoke. When I got it out to look at it tonight, it's actually two pieces of butt. One is about 4 lbs and the other 3 lbs. They're fairly wide and long, but only about 3" thick. He wants pulled pork, so I'll take them to 205 (smoker set at 225), but trying to guesstimate when to put them in the smoker had me puzzled. I usually estimate 2 hrs per pound, but I'm worried these will get done quicker.
I've smoked a lot of butts, but never any this thin before. Anyone else ever run into this?
