Nope. Not much, I don't think.
I look at it like this.....fuel is a variable of cooker temp, not amount of meat. Although it may take a little longer for the cooker to return to temp once placing meat on (although I doubt it) a cooker at 225 for 12 hours will use roughly the same amount of fuel no matter if it's packed full of meat or empty.
I had my 5 butts on and other than having to let the 2 bigger ones cook for another 1/2 hour, they were all done at about the same time as it usually takes me to cook just one, and I never had to add any fuel at all. Fill that sucker up and use the minion method.
