HOMERUN!!! Pork butt

Had to do a pork butt for my company Christmas party. Feeding roughly 12 people. Local Piggly Wiggly had a 2 pack, roughly 23lbs of pork. I used the smaller one, figured its about 10lbs. Had to go help Santa clause out and grab a gift while the kids were gone (first pic). Anyway. Got home around 9. Mixed my rub. Which is a knockoff of the motherships pulled pork sandwiches rub. Set up to run at 300 degrees indirect. Put it on about 10pm, with apple wood and jack Daniels flavored chips. I forgot to take a pic of it prior to running it. Anyway, at 2 pm I checked the temp, steady at 300. Inserted my thermometer it read about 138. At 3am it was at 154. At 4 it was 168. 5am it was 173. At 6 it was at 185. Took it off at 630. Wrapped it with more rub and some apple juice. Took it to work. Put it on a webber about 9am. It had dropped to 165. At 10:15 it was at 195. Took it off. Opened the foil. Drained the grease. At 11:15. Put it on a hot fire for 7 min each side and had an awesome bark. Took it off. Let it rest and served it at 12. My boss said it was the best he'd ever had. HOMERUN!!!!
