The on-sale butt I was bragging about yesterday got injected, rubbed and rested overnight, then despite the 2°F temperature this morning, I fired up the drum, hooked it and hung it with a big piece of hickory for flavor wood. I'm debating wrapping it at about 1pm (4.5 hours into the cook) and letting it cook itself tender on auto pilot as I'm going to a pre-game happy hour & appetizer party. This sucker looks kind of lonely in the pit all by itself.... maybe I'll skewer some potatoes and veggies to have with dinner.

:shock::shock::bounce:


Okay, here is the 4 hour temp check, it was 165°, so I went with Plan B.... de-hook this bad boy, wrap with some of the reserved injection, and let the butt get happy with itself. :wink:

Looks delicious already.

Did somebody say there's a game on today? I got distracted by all the great food.

I don't know man.... that butt didn't want to stay together :rolleyes:

I had a hard time getting some from the foil to a plate.... :mrgreen:
