That would be more like the "I've got a bone to pick!" or "Throw me a Bone!" Throwdown. Sorry about that.

All the same, I'd love to see the soup you'd make with the bone.

Thanks guys..... I'm probably thinking outside the box, which I do often. Sorry butt, creating a bone scenario was a mis-direction, because I didn't want to give away my hole card so to speak. Butt, for the most part I think by now I'm already semi-busted with my game-plan.

So, I'm going to start with that BIG butt in my beer fridge and move forward, full speed ahead, and hopefully put a legal twist on this TD.

What counts as a kettle?

Does a Kamado count as a kettle?

You know, I haven't done one of these in a LONG time. My Lang is long gone and I have Bubba Grills custom making a RF smoker for me. Hopefully it'll get here in time. Looks like a good maiden voyage cook to have some fun with. I'll try.

Cooked a butt this past Sat. I don't take great shots, but hey all that can happen is I earn another " 0 "! Full cook thread here http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/sh...d.php?t=271727

My entry photo. Simple, yet delicious pulled pork.

If I start with a big butt, remove the bone, discard most of the meat, flavor smoke the bone, then make soup with the bone... is this legal? Or do I have to cook the big butt whole, then do whatever I want with the meat or bone?

Well, I decided to leave some meat on the bone after all....

in fact I broke my big butt down into my favorite muscle groups, the money end and the horn end. Stay tuned...

It's time for the Throwdown entry post for my Pork Breakfast Griddle.... HERE is the link to my cooks thread in Q-Talk with all the details of my cook from start to finish. Here is the pork I had to work with for this throwdown.

And.... without further ado, here is my official "I Like Big Butts!" TD entry photo.

Use first photo. Ribs and tenderloin added later. Friend’s son had first communion.

Wife requested Pernil a lo panameño for mother's day. However we didn't have an army to feed a pork leg was out and butts were in! Lucky me, an excuse to enter the thowdown.

Picked up a pack of boneless butts at Costco

Into the marinade for a day. Think mojo, as there is lots of garlic and oregano and cumin, then add some onion and celery and most importantly some Culantro

And then the skies opened up and the original plan to cook it on a rotisserie over an open fire was nixed. Ended up cooking it on the gasser rotisserie. No pics as my hands were too full balancing the meat and an umbrella.

Wife was very happy with the final result so that's all that matters. Took the leftover marinade and boiled it down to make a sauce. Was missing l'insalata russa y arroz con guandú y coco but we are watching our carbs these days so platted up with some fresh asparagus and cauliflower mash!
