I've had pretty good luck cooking butts the last couple of years, but I want to up my game. I will be cooking 14 butts for a benefit in a couple of weeks and was wondering if a brine or an injection would be in order.
My usual process is fairly basic. A rub, then into the pit, cap down, for the duration. I have been known to foil the butts at 165-170 once in a while, the only difference I've noticed is the cook time and color and texture of the bark.
What is the prevailing Brethern opinion on the relative benefits of brining and or injecting. (BTW I do brine my chicken and turkeys and love the way they turn out)
