First Pork Butt

Happy NFL Conference Sunday!  To celebrate the occasion (in addition to a bday celebration for the MIL and SIL) I decided to attempt my first pork butt.  It's been a little over a month of egg ownership and I figured it's about time.

8.5lb bone in Boston Butt, scored, rubbed w/ a homemade rub (somewhat followed Elder Ward's recipe on Naked Whiz), egg set to 225 w/ platesetter legs up, drip pan w/ water, and some cherry and hickory chips.  I got up at 5am to light the fire and put the butt on around 5:30am.  It's been four hours and the IT is approx 130 degrees.  Going to pull at 195… hoping for about 12 hours in total so we can eat around 6:30pm.  So far so good…
