It saves alot of time when doing 40+ butts. End product comes out great. You still have crispy fat etc. But there tends to be more of a flavor from the rub, when mixed in the meat when shreading compared to rub just on the outside. We typically get 3-4 butts shredded per full hotel pan. We (Diesel Dave)stopped injecting and rubbing first a few years ago for the shoulders. Big time saver, and no complaints.
Just a thought.
Thanks ebjack,

I always catch the dripping in full size hotel pans, and refrigerate them to harden the fat for easy removal,while the meat is holding for a few hours. Just before serving the drippings and the pulled pork are reunited with another very light sprinkle of rub.

EDIT:
Actually I threw an additional plain but on to test. Sometimes change is hard, but at least I'll give it a test run. Thanks...
My wife say's I'm OCD because I fight change, and I like things done in a specific manner. LOL
