Well 10 years ago I had no idea where pulled pork came from! didn't even know what a butt was! First time I read on here that as soon as you take them off the Egg you put them in a cooler wrapped in a towel I was confused! Why would one try to get it cold?

Well I'm getting ready to put 4 butts on for our Sons wedding this evening, going to Turbo them.

Stay tuned as I will post some pictures of the cook. Jim

    Good luck on your cook! I knew so little about how to cook anything 9 years ago when I got my egg. I have learned so much from the forum and eggfests. I like to cook for people now, and more importantly they can't wait till I fire up the egg again!

    The Butts are all done and in the coolers resting! just need to pull them an hour before we eat.

     I can't remember what the knife is but will get back to you on that. Thanks for all the compliments.

    The bride and Groom are in the middle K

    The bride and groom in the center Kay my hot sexy blond on the left.

    Well it's all done but the late night parting! I'm to old for that so we are back at the Motor Home cooling off! the whole wedding was outside in 98 degrees, with so many people in the house and with all the warming trays of food the A/C couldn't keep up. But it was all wonderful and an awesome wedding, Happy to have a new daughter-in-law and her children join our family. The complements on the pulled pork were in abundance, I give all the credit to the BGE. Jim
