Cooking 8 pounds is the same as cooking 80 pounds not much difference. I cook 400 pounds at once one a regular basis. I have noticed if the smoker is over crowded they can take a little bit longer but not a lot. You should get better than a 50% yield. Typically you loose maybe 30 %. If you cook boneless ones will be little better yield. Just make sure you have space in between the butts. Good luck and happy smoking!
