As everyone else is saying good results are good results. I go 2 hours per pound at 240* or so. Don't fix it if it ain't broke.

Like the others have said, if it works, don't f#€* with it! A butt has personality, no two cooks will be the exact same.
I do think that checking your done thermo, if not done yet, would be a good thing. You might be wayyyy off!!!LBGE #19 from North GA Eggfest, 2014

If it tastes as good as it looks, you are doing nothing wrong. On Butts, there is no right answer. An hour per pound at ~300 sounds about right. If you are happy with it, then don't change.1 LBGE in Chapel Hill, NC

I just did a 5 lb butt yesterday. On at 10:00 am and off at 10:30 pm. Cooked approx. 275 all day. It was great. +1 on if it ain't broke, don't fix it.LBGE, Marietta, GA

Thanks for the ideas, all. Your reminder to check the dome thermo is a good one, too. Haven't done that since I bought it.

@thetrim
I'm dying to give the seal of approval. But I didn't know if it would be appropriate or not brother trim. I think it goes without saying that she more than earns everyone's seal of approvalLocation- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

Remember to put your thermapen into the deepest part of the butt!
