My nephew has enlisted in the Army and for his last weekend home before reporting for duty his parents held a party for him. I volunteered to provide some BBQ.

I started off the cook with 2 packers (15+ lbs and 13+ lbs before trimming) and 4 butts (8-9 lbs each). Top 2 racks with a brisket and butt each and 2 more butts on the bottom:

A few hours into the cook I foiled the butts and moved them to the bottom rack, butcher wrapped the briskets, and added 4 racks of ribs (3 baby backs, 1 St. Louis spare):

The cook ran a little long and in my rush to get the food off and up to the party I have time for any more cook pics. Once we arrived at the party, I was busy pulling, slicing, and helping out and only managed to get one pic of one of the briskets:

There was way too much food as my sister in law had cooked a bunch of food and other family members brought dishes as well.

My nephew appreciated my BBQ and my wife's baking so it was a win. Thanks for looking!

Thanks everyone for the compliments and more importantly the thanks for my nephew! I've passed on the thanks and a link to this thread in case he gets a chance to check it out himself.

Way to fill that thing up! Looks great.

I rarely get a chance to cook this much Q so I took the opportunity to fill in up!

My Eggs understood :). Actually if I were to cook these same meats under the same time constraints again I'd probably have my Large Egg handle the ribs.

Looks like a great cook,and better yet sounds like you have some good leftovers. Tell you nephew his service is greatly appreciated .

I definitely have leftovers! We probably won't need to cook this week.
