Cooking time for two 8# Butts

Its been a while since I've cooked two butts at the same time. At 250 and 8# a piece, what should I consider for a cook time?
I want to thank everyone for their responses. Seems like I'm asking a lot of questions lately for someone cooking on an egg for 15 years.

1.5-2 hours/lb = 12-14 hours or so.Sandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga

What bgebrent said. And the same time as it takes for 1 8lb butt.

You can always bump temp up to 350 with no ill effect if time gets tight or start there and go turbo.Sandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga

Thanks I was wondering if cooking time increased any with two Butts

As @nolaegghead said, same time except maybe an extra 20 minutes recovering temp after adding meat due to greater mass of cool meat. Inconsequential.Dawgtired said:Thanks I was wondering if cooking time increased any with two ButtsSandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga -
