I've done a couple on my Kamado Joe Big Joe (Similar to XL Egg) at 225F, for me it comes down to wrapping the Butt so at the right color. The Butt on average seem to reach the bright cherry color at 150F and 165F. Every Butt a little different.
DeepElemCue,
Are you tracking you internal temp with a Maverick 732 or another probe?
I think your on to something with this. I did a butt last Monday on the WSM. Ran at 275 using Stubbs briqs. Had a pan of beans under the butt. When I took the beans off at the 4 hour mark, the butt had a beautiful cherry red color to it. Temped it for the heck of it and it was at 157*. I let it ride unwrapped till done about another 4 hours. Was very dark, but still super moist and juicy. Used Hickory and Cherry btw.
