Default How long can butts be refrigerated?

I thought I had a link bookmarked, but can not find it, trying to figure out how soon I can purchase butts before they are cooked.

If it's still in the original cryovac, you can go much much longer.

Oops, my bad. I thought he asked how long they can be reefered AFTER cooking. Prior to cooking, if exposed to air, 3 days is pretty much the limit. As mentioned above though, packed in cryo it can last a lot longer.

I am going to pick up a couple butts to cook for my daughters banquet on Thursday, and I have my other daughters graduation party on Sunday (cook Sat night)
Will buying crovac pacs for both events Wed be safe?
