I did one this weekend with no bone as well. It was just ok. Bone-in is better, IMO. I think I just pulled it a little late.Sarasota, FL via Boynton Beach, FL, via Sarasota, FL, via Charleston, SC, via The Outer Banks, via God's Country (East TN on Ft. Loudon Lake)

There is little difference between cooking bone-in or out. The main thing is that having been de-boned there is a small chance that the meat has some contamination inside it. So make sure the meat gets to at least 140F for awhile. But, assuming you are going for pulled pork, it'll be clean long before its ready for pulling.

I have done bone in and out, both turbo and regular. I can't tell the difference in taste.

CenTex Search my last turbo cook I did on the small. The title is: Modified turbo butt cook. It was a boneless 3+ roast and it turned out great. Dont be skimpy on the lump

I think they are better with the bone but no reason not to do the one you already have. I always buy bone in but I've done them both and nobody sent any back! Good experience to work with one that's boneless so you can learn the difference. Go for it, It will still be better than most BBQ you can buy anywhere.Keepin' It Weird in The ATX FBTX -
I agree. My wife thought it was great. I was in a hurry and didn't check whether or not it had a bone. It's all in my head. It was fine. It pilled nicely.Sarasota, FL via Boynton Beach, FL, via Sarasota, FL, via Charleston, SC, via The Outer Banks, via God's Country (East TN on Ft. Loudon Lake)

Ok. I finally cooked a 9 lb boneless Turbo-butt on my small. Here is how I did it:
- Tuesday- Brined the butt in a salt and molasses solution.
- Wednesday - Removed from brine and covered with yellow mustard and a generous layer of Bad Byron's Butt Rub.
- Thursday - Loaded my egg, my butt, and my butt into the truck and headed to Blue Ridge Ga for a weekend of trout fishing with 6 other guys.
- Friday - Filled the egg with Wicked Good and apple wood until i couldnt fit another piece of lump into it. The plate setter was actually rocking on the lump. I put the butt on at 9:00am at 300 deg. By 3:30, I was running out of fuel. The dome temp had fallen to 250 so I removed the butt at 4:30pm after 7.5 hours at 198 deg. I let it rest for about an hour before pulling.
I have to say that this was the best pulled pork that I ever put into my mouth. Everybody agreed that it was the most moist and tender pork that they have ever eatten and talked about it the rest of the weekend.
I don't think I will ever try to do a low and slow overnight if this butt is an indication of what a turbo-butt tastes like. I cannot image it could turn out any better that this one did.
I didn't get any pictures of the butt after I removed it from the egg because I couldn't remove it in one piece. It was so tender that it came apart in several pieces. Here is a picture of the butt before I closed the egg and one after I pulled it.
