Pork Butt Perfection

JRWhitee · June 2013

Not that pork butt is difficult but todays Butt turned out excellent. I got the two 7 lbs Butts from Costco on Wednesday rubbed with Fat Boys Cajun Rub Thursday, wrapped and refrigerated until Friday morning. Started the Egg at 5:45 am this morning with some Hickory chunks clear smoke by 6:30 and Egg at 280 put on the Butts with some bushes baked beans in the drip pan. The beans were pulled after a couple hours and refrigerated. At 7:15 and Egg was at 310, closed the bottom vent a little and by 8:00 Egg was back at 275 where it stayed until 4:30. Butts were at 205 and probe went in like Butter. This was some of my best Butt yet but I always say that....Then I heated up the bean and we feasted

Looks great. I have my first butt on the BGE now. Almost ready to pull it off. Applied some homemade rub prior to putting it on the BGE yesterday at 6:00 pm. Cooked it low and slow (200-230). I hope it comes out as nice as yours. I should have put my beans on like you do. Oh well. Next time.

Those look outstanding. Are they bone-in or boneless? My Costco only sells boneless.

Never seen a bone-in butt at our Costco, but, they still taste good!

@JRWhitee, that looks like some great eats!

They were boneless, thanks @jaydub.
@buckeyebob my Dad went to OSU, where are you from?

Nice looking cook. I did a 7# butt on the Egg myself at 225 and it took about 15 hours vs your 12. That beer is looking real good just about now too.<BR><BR>
