First Butt on the BGE

Unknown · January 2006

<p />This was my first try cooking a 6.5 lb butt in my large BGE. It took 14 hrs. to get 200 deg. I had a little problem holding the temp last night, it was windy. It turned out tasting great, in some parts of the roast the meat seemed mushy to me not sure why? I thought the meat would be on the dry side but not at all, very moist and tender. Used a Famous Dave's Rib Rub with a mustard slather. Life is Good!!

KyleJ,
Congratulations! Looks good enough to eat. Next, give yourself a treat and try doing a picnic shoulder. Same times, same temps and I think a littel different flavor and texture.

KyleJ, Looks wonderful. Pork butt bark is hard to beat for things just coming off the egg. [p]Now it is time to crank that baby up several hundred, hundred, hundred, hundred, hundred, hundred, hundred degrees and christen the felt gaskets.....:<)[p]tom
