    Unless you are in a hurry or your bark is getting too dark I say let it ride to the end as is. It’s looking damn good.

    I've never wrapped a butt. So I vote no.

    Beats me, but I'm cooking a butt tomorrow and I'm gonna try Malcolm Reed's butcher paper method. Never wrapped before. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8yRj1RS5rA

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Wrapping pork is only for a faster finish IMO, so if you have time don’t but looks like you have a ways to go.

    This is why you shouldn’t wrap. Try something new.
