Last night about 11 I put a Boston But on the Egg and thought I had temp stabalized at about 220, when I awoke at 7 it was at 300.[p]The internal temp is 180, my concern is that it cooked too hot to long, I don't want to over cook. Any advice?[p]

    BillyT,[p]Don't worry - at least the fire stayed going. [p]The pork butt is a tough piece of meat to ruin. Get the temps lower and get the meat temp up to 200° and you are going to be fine. You might have a little extra bark (Mr Brown) but the meat inside will be fine. [p]Tim

    BillyT, Tim M's right. You're in good shape. Also, sounds like you're going to be done early. Wrap your pork in aluminum foil, then in a towel, then put in a cooler @ room temp. The pork will stay real hot for hours.[p]Happy 4th, Scott
