I'm 12 hours into a 225/230 indirect grill temp bone in pork butt and have very little dripping but it is burnt, I did use spacers and I am hoping it doesn't taint the flavor of the pork? I'm in the stall at 176 with 3 to 4 hours left on the 8 1/2 and 7 1/2 pounders. Any Thoughts on the taste!

You should be fine but if you are worried you can add some water to the pans.____________________Entrepreneurs are simply those who understand that there is little difference between obstacle and opportunity and are able to turn both to their advantage. •Niccolo Machiavelli

It's also a good idea to put some spacers under the drip pan to dissipate heat. Use foil balls, crushed beer cans, rocks, etc to raise drip pan up a tad.Richmond and Mathews County, VA.

I did use spacers and the cook never got over 250 for 16 hours, the good news was there was no bad taste or burnt taste at all. Everyone enjoyed.JethroVA said:It's also a good idea to put some spacers under the drip pan to dissipate heat. Use foil balls, crushed beer cans, rocks, etc to raise drip pan up a tad.
