first butcher paper butts

Nice start.
Why don't you wrap one and leave the other one alone?
Then you could tell the difference ( taste and texture wise) between the two...:wink:
Time differences are hard to compare, 2 butts side by side can finish hours apart...go figure...:wink:

Glad to help, you'll love mixing that in after pulling. Adds a mess of flavor.

Unwrapped on the left. They had the same taste and texture, the wrapped one took 1 1/2 hours longer. I thought the wrapped one would be done first, and the unwrapped one would be much darker, wrong on both. By using the roaster rack I did discover one thing the grease went through the paper but the awesome juice stayed in the paper somehow, got about a 1/4 cup of thick black deliciousness.
 
Thanks for the side by side!! I would have thought the wrapped 1 would have been done at least the same time the other would have been. I know it's not uncommon for 2 butts to have different cook times but I thought it would have sped it up. I wonder how long it would have taken w/o paper then?
