Those would still be winter butts here. Calling for snow Saturday and next week. :evil: Golf league starts a week from Monday.
Looks like you are off to a good start.
Let us know if there is much different taste in the rubs with the finished product.

Mr. Eggtucky you and I had the same idea!!! I've been out of pulled pork for some time and have been craving it (I've been trying to eat healthier and, well, I don't think pulled pork fits the bill). Anyway, I put four, yes four butts on the large around 7:00 pm this evening. I have the digi II hooked up with a grate temp of 235! Can't wait till tomorrow; hopefully, I'll remember to take pics.

hehe..will try to..but what i usually end up doing is pullin em both at the same time and they somehow end up in the same pot! :blink:
-
hehe..take some pix ed!..and jus remember..in my lifetime..the nutritionists change bout every 5 years what is and isn't healthy..not sure they know wth they are talkin bout!...anyways..moderation is the key..jus dont eat it all at once! :P

How is that Pecan Rub, I have always wanted to try it, my buddy is doing his first butt tonight & he has a giant jar of it, & a few others, I urged him to try the pecan, heard a lot of good things about ithappy in the hut
West Chester Pennsylvania -
tell him to try it!..only thing is..it does have a lot of sugar in it..you'll notice that after putting it on the butt..the sugar will draw some moisture out of the meat and get all gooey...but cant go wrong with it! I use it when I'm doin 2 butts..I do one pecan and one byron's..then I usually end up mixin the meats after i pull them..the sweet in the JH really offsets the less sweet flavor of the Byron's nicely...
