This weekend I cooked a couple bone in butts for a Church dinner we were having. Caught them for a sweet price of .99 per #. I seasoned them up with some S & P and then hit them with some Sweet Rub O' Mine rub (this rub is ok, but it doesn't knock my socks off by any means). They went on the WSM at 9 p.m. I knew it was going to be a late night, but I had no idea what I was in for.
They were cooking at about 290* so I figured wrapping around 1 or so and hopefully pull them off at 2 or 230. WAY WRONG! Checked around 12:00 and I wanted a little more bark. Checked at 1:00 and the IT was approximately 130, but my fire had burned out. Instead starting a chimney outside I made the executive decision they are going into the oven. Turned the oven to 350* so they would finish and I could let them rest and hash it in the morning...man was I in for a surprise. The butts didn't get done until 5 a.m. The only thing I can think of was I didn't take their size into consideration. One but was 11# and the other was 12#. The others I have cooked have been around 8# but only taken about 5 1/2 hours. I let them rest until 7 and hashed them up add more rub and my homemade vinegar sauce. The BBQ turned out excellent. My miniature loves my bbq which is a blessing and she kills it every time it is made. Thanks for looking.
