Here is what we done this weekend..

[HHpepper]

Fired the pit up at 8pm thursday and 68 butts later we shut her down at 8am saturday. These were a fundraiser for my wifes church youth group. It went very well. They asked that we only smoke them with no rub or injections.

WOW what a load of meat got any finish pics would love to see them WOW

 

[landarc]

Wow, nice load of meat. Why no rubs?

 

[Metalbender]

2nd that no rub?????????

 

[HHpepper]

some of the buyers were pretty old and didnt need the extra salt/sugar, some dont like spices, blah blah... I didnt have time to get any finish pics as we had to remove and foil before the pit lost too much heat. It was my first ever cook with that much meat, I may give them a limit next time, I am a little too old to work those hours.

 

[thunter]

[Phubar]

WOW!!!
That's a big Ph#%*! load!
Impressive!

 

[HHpepper]

Yes we had to cook in 2 loads, 36 was all my pit would hold. I know that loading it up like that extended the cook time but I didnt have a choice cause they scheduled the first pickups at 6pm on friday. We had to jockey the meat around a few times to even the cooking. Took a ton of fuel to keep it up to temp with a load like that.

We picked these up at $1.27/lb from Southeastern Meats. By the way they are great folks to buy meat from, frozen and fresh.

 

[Hofy]

WOW great job!!
Did you have to pull all that pork, or was it picked up whole?
Also, how much fuel did you burn through?

 

[HHpepper]

Nah, they picked them up whole in foil. We went thru 3.5-40lb bags of lump, 1 bag of RO briqs and several sticks of hickory.

Man o man. that's a butt-load of butt!! Nice job!

 

[Puppyboy]

And I thought I could load up a cooker. Good job. Where they auctioned or purchased for a set price?
