Cooking a couple of Boston butts for the 4th of July. Cooking at 225 grid at the moment.
Cherry chunks and a handful of apple chips for smoke. First all nighter in a while. Hopefully this comes off okay since I have to work a few hours in the morning.

Thanks guys. No finish pics because I had to go to work this morning. Pulled the butts at about 187. FTC'd until lunch and they pulled apart great. Excellent smoke flavor and great bark (even on the part where they were touching). One thing I did different this time as an experiment was I trimmed the fat cap a little. Resulted in a better bark than I usually get (firmer).-Jody Newell (LBGE & a 36" Blackstone griddle).

Why is the shoulder called a butt anyway? Make it more appetizing?

I don't know, however, I love it when my 7 year old runs around screaming how much she loves pork butt. Gets some looks, but I'm oh so proud -
