Never cooked more than 1 before and usually a 6lber. How long to cook 4 - 4lb butts. Butts wil be injected and cooked on UDS @ 225. Should I let them come up to room temp first.

Also, I need to have them done by 11am. Should I go low and slow overnight then cooler them. Or hot and fast starting early am?

Thanks.

It sounds a little tricky - but its not... just don't short change yourself with time.

Not all butts cook the same way; some butts will run longer than others of a similar size.

Set them for a slow cook (225-250) overnight - give yourself a 10 hour window (including cooler time).

Disclaimer - The above suggestions are based on an established personality of your UDS.
If this is part of a learning curve; go with hot and fast - 6 hours (including cooler/rest).
