I've heard that someone recently mentioned something about injecting butts with marinade before slow cooking. What's up with that? Has anyone heard about or have experience with this technique?

    Single Malt,[p]I inject butts with strained Italian dressing based upon the assumption that it adds some fat and flavor. I picked up this tip a few months back from someone on the forum (Jim Minion????), but I cannot presently remember. It seems to work pretty well, I believe.

    Pig Sooie,[p]I'm going to give that a try. I just wrapped up two butts in rub with a little Wishbone Italian dressing injected in a couple spots. The egg is prepared for a Midnight start.[p]Man, I love pulled pork. The neighbors will love the smell in the morning.[p]Cheers,[p]GrillMeister
