I cooled this one at 275 for about 4 hours,  then wrapped it in foil and raised the temp to 325. I had to move it along, supper was running late. Smoked with cherry and covered with Dizzy Dust. This was delicious!  We had a feed of mussels in wine/cream for an app

    If anyone can help, I can never get the photos in order from my ipad. Usually the text appears at the bottom and even if I add the pics one at a time they get shuffled.

    Whatever order they are in- it looks phenomenal.  Where did you score the bershire butt? 

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    Great looking pics in any order. 

    Seems our last vanilla "upgrade" was to randomize pics.

    Looks awesome!! 2 questions - how much did it weigh and how much did you trim it? I cooked a 5.5 lb'er Sunday @ around 275 and it looked really black and took a little over 8 hours. I sure wish mine looked like yours!!

    My brother and I ordered a berkshire hog from a vendor at the local farmers market and we split it. The butt was maybe 4 lbs?  Smoked it indirect at 250 for about 3 hours and since time was an issue I wrapped it in foil and raised the temp to 325  I think total cook time was about 7 hrs. It was really good.  My brother did one as well, at 250 his took 10 hrs
