Picked u 2 pork butts today. They were on sale for 99cents per lb! I set the egg up for 250-280. I'm using Apple and hickory chunks for smoke. I'll try to post the outcome.

Standing by....any smoked pork scraps for the dog? I saw you said you did it with the chicken trimmings and thought it was cool!Memphis, TN ----> Chattanooga, TN

@DMW I like to cook higher in the dome. This is the first low an slow I've done high in the dome. Plus I can put my drip pan on the bottom grid and my pit probe on the back of the thermometer. I think it's more of an experiment.
-
Well, this is the fastest pork butt I've done so far. I'm guessing it's going to stall soon and hang out awhile....I hope

Unless it's foiled, you're approaching stall territory.

No foil....this one just seemed to haul ass

It probably moved faster than expected because it is higher in the dome. It will be picking up more radiant heat from the dome than if it was down lower.Southeast Florida - LBGE
In cooking, often we implement steps for which we have no explanations other than ‘that’s what everybody else does’ or ‘that’s what I have been told.’ Dare to think for yourself. -

Did you get done close to your target time? Also, what do you think of the time stick triple. I have one in the shopping cart just one more click to go.LBGE& SBGE———————————————•———————– Pennsylvania / poconos

@grege345 Yeah it's resting in the cooler now. I pulled it off around 6am will shred around 1130. It finished in 13hrs. I love my time stick! I bought the regular time stick right when they released the trio. I think it's a must have for sure.

So it is just a timer? I am trying to figure out what it does other than my iPhone timer.bweaver said:@grege345 Yeah it's resting in the cooler now. I pulled it off around 6am will shred around 1130.

Counts up counts down and shows the time. It sticks to the fridge. I guess it's not much different but i like having a timer.
-
The multiple timer intrigues me for when I have two eggs going. Also, if I put put something on the large like potatoes and add something 20 minutes later like the start of a reverse sear. I don't know I have a few bucks and I'm dying to spend it I guessLBGE& SBGE———————————————•———————– Pennsylvania / poconos

Where do you people live where meat is so cheap? CAB briskets around here bottom out at $7 a pound, and pork shoulder I've not seen lower than $1.89/lb. Do I need to move out of Colorado? -
I'm in Indiana. "Choice" brisket here is 3.89 a lb this was the cheapest I've ever bought a butt. Normally 1.99 per lb

I just picked up pork shoulder for $1.49/lb. it has been coming down in price for a while now. I sometimes marvel at the brisket prices the TX folks pay. Always much higher down here.SeahawksEGGHead said:theyolksonyou said:.99 a pound. What a bargain! Standing by.
