injection pork butt question

Ok so my daughter brought over a small 3lb butt. I'm going to turbo it on the mini. Question for the masses, has anyone injected this size butt and also have you turbo'd it?? What say you. My plan is to rub it, then spread some mustard, and then some more rub. I'm thinking indirect for about 2+ hours. Will put it on around 6pm tomorrow, and have a late meal.
Will try to remember to take pics. Lets hear from y'all

3lbs I would just low and slow it. Wouldn't take too long. Not sure if turbo on a small piece like that would be as good. I could be wrong.

3lb? I've never even seen one close to that small. I learned something new.

I found out all Kroger "Moist and Tender" which includes most ribs and all the butts in my local store are injected with up to 12%. I've never injected any size anything before and have always had "moist and tender" if cooked long enough.
I've cut a butt in half to get a smaller piece of meat for only two of us eating. I cooked nicely at about 2 hours per pound just like the bigger ones.

The little piggy is on Eggbert, (mini). Grilling around 370*. Rolled right through the stall. Got a little ways to go, we will see how it turns out.Large, small, and a mini
