Thanks, guys. The pork butt was my first time to try an overnight cook. I've read about the stall on here beforhand, so I figured I had a good idea of what to expect. I put the butt on at 8:00pm and checked it until @ midnight when I went to bed. I only planned to get up once at 3:00am to check my Egg temp and butt temp. At 3:00am my Egg temp was rockin at @ 265, which I was happy with and my butt temp was 157. I got a little nervous without having overnight experience with the Egg and decided to open the vents slightly to offset any decrease in my fire. I didn't check it again until @ 7:00am the next morning and my Egg temp had increased to @ 325 and my butt temp was 190. It sped up my cooking time by @ 2 hours, but it still turned out great. Now I know next time to just trust in the Egg and let it do it's thing.
Thanks again for the kind words and I look forward to sharing many more pics and stories.

BuckeyeBob, you are spot on about being in Heaven with the Egg. I modified the Brinkmann where it had the same set up(vents at bottom and top with an oven gasket to seal the lid) as the Egg. Obviously, it wasn't any where near being as efficient as the Egg. I would always have to tinker with the vents to keep my temp consistent. I'm blaming the Brinkmann for making me adjust the vents on my overnight cook and allowing my temp to increase. Old habits are hard to break, especially bad ones. As I said in an earlier post, I will let the Egg do its thing from now on.

Thanks. I wish I could take credit for the build, but I I'm not much of a carpenter. I've been very impressed with some of the builds that I have seen in other posts. There is a lot of talent on this forum, with cooking and carpentry skills.

Very nice indeed. You have learned lesson #1. If there are no pics, it didn't happen.
