Extreme Weather Pork Butts

I am cooking 2 8LB Compac Duroc butts for a family XMAS party Saturday afternoon/night.
Just mustard and Big Bob Gibsons Seasoning Rub, no injection this time.
We are expecting a few inches on snow tonight but the fun starts tomorrow night with the bitter cold temps and winds.
The XL was cleaned out this morning and I have loaded the Rockwood lump all the way to the platesetter stone for the Woo 2.
I will be lighting up the lump with the Looflighter around 8:00 PM so that I can set the Butts on the grate no later than 10:00 PM.
Grate temp to start will be at 225 which on my egg is 250 dome. Saturday morning I will raise the temp as needed to finish by 2:00 PM.
Then FTC until pulling around 4:00 PM.
Stay Tuned!

Doesn't sound too extreme but good luck and I'm sure we all await the pictures of the winter butts.Mt Elgin Ontario - just a Large.

We were very lucky. The bad stuff is happening later tonight.gmac said:Doesn't sound too extreme but good luck and I'm sure we all await the pictures of the winter butts.
Here is are the butts prior to adding to the XL. More pics to come as they have been on since 11 PM CST and are in the stall at 165. I bumped up the grate temp to 235.
