Hey All,

Had a party last night to celebrate our daughter's 2nd birthday. Cooked up 6 butts coming in at 65 lbs. Ran them up on my 48" offset for 14 hrs @215 f on a combo of mesquite and hickory (my favorite) I threw on some chicken in the last 3 hrs just for good measure. A good time was had by all. And there was just enough left to make pulled pork breakfast burritos for the out of town family this morning. I wish there were more photos but I was sharing the camera with my wife because I can't find mine.

I let my butts go a bit longer than some, but I really love that bark.

Best birthday gift ever! Wish I had thought of it. Sorry the image is sideways. It's correct in my computer. Just not sure how to fix it here.

I bet that was every bit as awesome as it looks!! Also, for some reason I've never thought of making breakfast burritos with my leftovers for some odd reason.....and I get pretty crafty.



Also, I apologize for reading birthday butts and thinking of something completely different and not as sweet(but oh the memories).:doh::oops:
 
Being my first post other than Cattle Call, a big thanks to all the brethren for the positive comments. Reading churrodog's comment I realized I missed some text in the original post. It should have said 215-225 F. Sorry I missed that.

Also, I know I'm throwing my fellow Californians under the bus here. But in true CA style out of the three sauces made for the event (Vinegar of course, Med-Hot Cider Vinegar/Tomato/Molasses, and a commercial made sweet tomato base sauce. The only one left over was the Vinegar. Silly west coasters. (and I am one. Just with better taste)
