Going to be a hectic smoke this weekend

[Noob]

up on the menu is going to be a 9.5lb Boston Butt (loved the 1st one i made), 6 Turkey legs, two 3.5lb Chuck Roasts and about 18 pork riblets. pre-measured and all fits in the cooker.

Gonna start early in the AM and start with the butt. I have a game plan where I put the butt in and after 3 hours i put the chuckies, legs and riblets. at hour IT-165deg i will foil the butt and throw it in the oven and foil the chuckies and finish them in the smoker. at that time i will also just check the legs and riblets as they should be almost done.


Will have alot of pron. No visitors this time, just wife and I. Just cooking alot so i can have alot of left overs for the up, coming week :D

Good luck! What type of smoker will you be using for the cook?

[Noob]

I have a New Braunfels Hondo (very similar to Black Diamond) offset cooker. This will be my 5th cook on it.

depending on temperature, reconsider waiting three hours for the chuckies, they take longer than you think.

Maybe put them in the same time as the butt? if the chuckies are done sooner, they can just wait for us wrapped in foil in my designated meat cooler. Yes?

Get more beer! Don't know how much you got, but get more. Good Luck!

I love it down there that is where my wife and in-laws are from and live. We were married at Cas los Ebinos on highway 100. Have a good cook this weekend.

wouldn't it be easier to just finish the butt in the smoker and not bother with putting it in the oven

I would put them in at the same time, or maybe an hour later to give you working time. They will hold just fine in a preheated cooler, and unlike butts, you can go ahead and wrap and put them in the cooler right off the bat, they get better that way.

Plus, a 9.5 pound butt, that is right in the size range you often see a long stall in the moderate to low temperature ranges, so if you are cooking under 300F, those chuckies being done a little early might just be a good thing.

Sounds great! I love it when someone fills the smoker with meat (especially when that someone is me!)
