    While the wife and I are empty nesters when I cook on the egg I usually make enough to freeze. It's great to take something out of the freezer the night before and know what you're having for dinner. If it is something like a burger or a chop I undercook them a lot so that they will not be overdone after reheating.

    I do the same. In fact that's why I bought a vacuum sealer for freezing leftovers. I normally get my butts from RD which comes with two large 8or 9 pounders wrapped together. I guess I'l just have to start cutting them in half and freezing one hals so that I can do smaller cooks. We don't need to eat so much at one setting anyway.

    FWIW I like to cook as many butts as I can and then I pull it and vac seal into family sized portions. Get the bags nice and flat and you can have a stack ready to go. I usually don't bother defrosting- straight from the freezer into simmering water and in an hour or so you have pulled pork. 

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.
