    Indirect with apple smoke 250 dome temp until 195-200 internal temp. If short on time hit the search menu for turbo butt. The first option will likely take 12-15 hours depending on size of the butt. I have had one on for 5 hours and I am just now getting into the stall or plateau area of 160 degrees +/-.
