First Butt

 Just wanted to introduce myself to everybody. I've had my egg for 2 years and done a many a beef tenderloin, steaks, spatchcock chickens galore, and too many skirt steaks for fajitas to count. This past Friday night I cooked my first butt on the EGG. I followed various posts for a couple days and put together all the information you guys provided(thank you by the way). I put a good amount of mustard on an 8 lb butt and rubbed it down really well Thursday night, threw her on indirect at 225' for 12 hours starting at 7pm and took her off at 7am at a nice 201' and FTC'd it for 8 hours pulling at 3pm. While pulling I could not get my 3.5 year old daughter to stop eating what I was pulling or my 2 year old son. My wife loved it which is always a plus. So thank you all fellow edgers for helping me cook a great meal for my family. Looking forward to many more butts.
