1st Butt Results
« on: August 31, 2020, 04:47:21 AM »
Yesterday was my wife's birthday and with that came the request for pulled pork, smoked mac n cheese and coleslaw.

This was my first butt. It was a 4lb Boston butt. Cook time was just over 7 hours. Probed for tenderness and removed at about 200.2°Temp range 225-250. Cherry and Hickory. After a bunch of great feedback from the community on resting/holding I decided to go with an hour in an aluminum pan still wrapped draped with a towel. This worked as it gave time for the mac n cheese to smoke.

Wife was happy with the results so I'll take that as a win! [emoji854]

A nice birthday meal, a win for sure
Seeking a Black Sequoia I know I know, I'd settle for just the tabbed no leg grill

Awesome. Yea it worked well. I was a bit nervous about how the cheese would stick, but it cleaned up easily. Plus with the rest time for the butt it was the perfect time needed to smoke the Mac and cheese.

I'll be curious to hear how your cook goes.
