Pork Butt in 6 hrs. Is it possible?

edited November -1 in EggHead Forum
I have the egg going and wanted to do a low and slow but, beging a realist, I don't have the time right now.[p]I thought I would go ahead and cook two butts at once so I could freeze some of the meat.[p]It is 1:30pm on Sunday and, I would like to complete the meat by 7pm tonight.[p]Any thoughts?[p]TW

    My parents always do a pork shoulder on their egg at 300 degrees for an hour or hour 15 min. a pound. It is good pulled. I have never tried to do it that way myself, prefer the 230 degrees or so and cook for many beers.[p]If you try at a higher temp, wrap in foil once it reaches the level on doneness on the outside. Wrap in two separate layers if you are concerned with overcooking the outside, punch holes in the bottom of the foil to drain fat into your drip pan if you like.[p]SS
