[JazzCat]

Started with this 8.8lb pork shoulder butt.

Seasoned it with this Butt Rub. (http://tvwbb.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/1980069052/m/9320063643) Wrapped it in saran for an overnight rest.

Apple and cherry wood for smoke.
I put an additional rack over the butt in case I wanted to add some hors d'oeuvres... butt i never did http://tvwbb.infopop.cc/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_frown.gif

Meanwhile, I made some Bacon Corn Chowdah. Borrowed this great recipe from right here. (http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/showthread.php?t=99994)
Everything I've seen Jeanie make is remarkable. And her chowder is no exception.

https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/_XcldU-XTeVs/TU4C_Xcq3WI/AAAAAAAAB-g/39L52GNtsHI/s512/DSCN2029.JPG
Two degrees away from target temp is good enough for me. Let's lookie see!

0hYeaH! She's Done! And look at that wonderful foil bucket of drippings!

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_XcldU-XTeVs/TU4DUdz5FXI/AAAAAAAAB-o/eGOqxyeYIBg/s640/DSCN2031.JPG

That's gonna make some outstanding homemade BBQ sauce.
Wrapp'er up in foil and cooler her for an hour at least.
Now, back to the bacon corn chowder...

Looks like a great combo for a Winter day. Thanks for sharing.

Jazz, that sammie and chowdah would hit the spot in a big kinda way right now.

I'm going to get MOINK certified tomorrow, along with a couple of stuffed fatties and some wings, with deep fried sweet potato fries.

GO PACKERS!

[JazzCat]

Thanks Clark! I haven't done a fatty in some time now... that should change.
We have big ol' beef ribs going on today, also Italian MOINKS and, of course, pulled pork tacos.
Here's to the Packers fourth SuperBowl victory! http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-eatdrink004.gif
