I am cooking my first pork butt soon.I will be using the Aaron Franklin Texas Style. Has anyone already tried this and how was the cook time at 275 degrees?

What is the weight of the pork butt? You are looking at about 1 - 1.5 hours per pound probably.
-
8 lbs. I plan on wrapping around 5 hrs and remaining cook time in foil at 8 hours total.
-
I cooked a 10# last week between 250/275. 16 hrs.
-
16 hrs? Did you wrap it in foil or just 16 hrs straight?
-
No foil

So if I cook at 275 for 5 hrs and then wrap in foil at 275 for around 3 hrs is that considered a Turbo?

No higher temp is considered turbo.dstearn said:So if I cook at 275 for 5 hrs and then wrap in foil at 275 for around 3 hrs is that considered a Turbo?
Pretty hard to screw up pork butt on the egg but you'll wanna check temps and tenderness instead of cookin to "time".LBGE& SBGE———————————————•———————– Pennsylvania / poconos -
My plan was to follow the Aaron Franklin You Tube video for Texas style pulled pork.

Just an update, the Pork Butt turned out great! After 5 hrs the temp was 165, wrapped it and cooked for 3 more hours at 275. Temp was 202. Rested for 45 minutes and pulled. The bone pulled out with ease. Next time I will try it without the water pan to see if it is really needed.

I do turbo at 350 without foil. 10lb takes about 6 hrs. Great bark. Super easy. I've never used a water pan and never felt like I needed one.Pittsburgh, PA - 1 LBGE

Sounds great, @dstearn I don think water in the pan is necessary in the pan-the Egg holds moisture so well anyways. I have sometimes put a little just to give the drippings a less hot, metallic dripping point, lest they could burn and smoke. The more I do this, though, the more I see the drippings providing enough of their own liquid.It's an obsession, but it's pleasin'
