It seems Smithfield is taking over the pork distribution in my area. I can't get the double cryopacks in the butcher section any more. They looked ok and I confirmed with the butcher that they are not "enhanced".
They seem to cook a bit quicker than I'm used to, about 9 hours @ 235F, but they are also a bit smaller at roughly 6 pounds each. We'll see how they taste in a few hours.

I have 120 MOINKs going on in 2 sets later. Going to try glazing some with a raspberry glaze and some with a hot pepper jelly glaze. Pron to follow.

Looks awesome! Are the butts boneless? I'm usually lucky if I can get 2 butts on my LBGE...

No, Bone in. They were a bit small at about 5.5 -6.5 lbs each. It was a tight fit. They came out very good. I was very happy. Nice and moist with good bark. Everyone enjoyed the food. That's the part that makes me happy. :clap:

Lots of people eating, drinking and making music. Great musicians. Good party.
