Lost temp overnight. HELP!!

shmoony

I put 19 lbs. of pork butt on the egg at midnight last night with dome temp at 215 on its way up. It had dropped from 240 when I put the pork on. When I woke up at 6am the dome temp was at 147! The blower on my digiQ was unplugged! The internal food temp was about 130. I immediately fixed the issue and got the dome temp back up to 250. I really really do not want to throw away 19 lbs of Boston butt, especially considering I'm hosting 30 people tonight. Please someone tell me I shouldn't.

Don't, ur ok with those temps and you have hours left to cook. You will be ok, keep cooking.

The same thing has happened to me twice. Both times I got the Egg back to temp and cooked on. Both times the pork was great, so I say carry on.

You are fine brother.

You might need to bump up that temp a little to cover for lost time.

Can't believe that smart DigiQ didn't plug itself in you're gonna be eating some great pork later.  Keep on keeping on.

All good, luckily you have (in my opinion) one of the most forgiving pieces of meat you're cooking. I did same thing, except, I thought i had enough lump and it ran low with about two hours left. Keep plugging. you won't taste the difference.
