As the post indicates I have a lot of meat going the EGG. I am aiming for 225 cook temp. Does anyone have some advice for some cook times I could expect. Should I put it all on at the same time. Scary part is this is for a friends daughters birthday party. I don't want to mess it up. Any thoughts would be welcome. Thank you.

At 225 dome the pork will take about 10 hours. The brisket could take 15-20. You can always foil the brisket around 8 hours to shave a few hours off. If the pork finishes way early then foil it, wrap it in towels and place in a cooler to hold heat for up to 5 hours. Let the brisket rest unwrapped for at least an hour before slicing.

At 225 I think you are looking at at least 1.5 hours per lb for the butts so that is 12 hours but could go longer. I think In would just put them on at the same time and use foil if needed for the meat that is lagging behind. If you had to you could finish one in the oven at a higher temp. Briskets are hard to time. I have had one finish 8 hours earlier than I expected.Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.
