Just got done. Cooked this one with Mickey coffee rub at 425 for 5 hours. Second one today. First one was normal. Just salt and pepp. Decided one wasn't enough to last the weekend.

    Thank you for the kind words my friend. I will admit i just shredded it and there were a couple spots that were a little stiff. I prefer low and slow but have been experimenting lately with super hot and fast. I cooked one last week at 450 and I will admit it was dry. My wife loves it that way so this is really trying to fit her palet. I enjoyed the coffee rub but would say I honestly prefer S&P.

    Thank you kind sir. I will admit the mustard sauce needs experimenting. I love mustard but so far not in Bbq sauce. I have not tied to make my own and I am pretty sensitive to sugar. So something may work out yet.

    Yep.  Very fine cook @Jstroke.  Looks like you nailed the bark, fast cook or otherwise.

    Thank you for the kind words guys. The bark was excellent. I did add quite a bit more cayenne in the recipe and it made it pop.

    Hmm. Is there another coffee rub @Mickey uses with cayenne? The recipe I used called for ancho chile. I have to substitute with moritas because I have a hard time finding ancho chile.

    Coffee Rub         (turkey, chicken, beef & pork)

    Equal part: Instant Expresso Ground coffee

    Equal part: Brown Sugar

    ½ part: Black Pepper

    ½ part: Kosher Salt

    ½ part: Garlic Powder

    ¾ part: Ancho Chili Powder


    Don't worry on exact, just close on measurement. I used to use turbinado sugar but we like with brown better. This is pulled from  MollyShark, Hungry Man, & Richard In Fl then tweaked. I find the ancho chili powder is far less expensive in the bulk spice area than the bottled area ( have used both light or dark version). I make it starting with a half cup  Instant Expresso Ground coffee  and work from there as it seems to store well if sealed. 
    Salado TX & 30A  FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Plus a couple Pit Boss Pellet Smokers.

    I responded to your question about my mixture with my rub mix on my BIB post if interested. 
    Your cook looks great.

    Well, I am mystified. Is that a butt, a brisket flat, or what?

    That Judy is a coffee rubbed pork butt Trimmed to 10 lbs. I cooked it at 425 degrees until it went 205. It was/is excellent. but I will admit there were a couple of spots that were a little stiff when I pulled it.
