1st All night smoke and 1st Butt

Here is an early peak of my Butt. It's 9 am and I still have 15 degrees more to go on the Butt. Added the Fatty at 7 am.

Made up a batch of Magic Dust from the Peace, Love, and BBQ book. Injected the Butt with a mixture of Italian Dressing, Lime Juice, Apple Cider Vinegar, and Magic Dust, then I rubbed the whole thing to death with the Magic Dust.

Put it in an at 11 pm last night. Got up at 2 am and 6 am. Smoker ran hot all night, at about 275. Next time I will light 6 pieces of charcoal to start everything up instead of 12. Last night, I was roaming around my attic and found the Halogen light pictured, I would highly recommend having one for anyone who does cooking in the night. (no whimpy grill lights)

Planning on putting on some Atomic Buffalo Terds later. (Have to wait for the fatty to get finished)

One question, are you suppose to precook the bacon a bit before wrapping the Terds?

Definately a lot of fun!!!

Just had pulked pork on a bun for lunch, delicious!!!!! I will post the pron in a little bit.

I used the can in the middle method (and Kingsford), which I am not sure I would do again, I think by going so deep into the stack of charcoal, I think it burned hotter and faster. I never got the temperature below 260. Last time I used lump and dumped it on top, and I had much better luck controlling the temperature of the fire and kept it around 230.

Just put on the ABT on the grill, they should be done by in an hour.

I have to get all this smoking done, so I can sit on my duff tomorrow and watch Tony Stewart win the Daytona 500.
