Boston Butts for the Virtual Overnighter

[wutang]

Getting things starting for the overnighter. Here are a few pics. Plenty more to come.

A couple of butts


Hit them with some rub last night.


About 2 hours into the smoke. Using apple and pecan wood. Temps around 230-250. Weather is pretty windy, supposed to get rain/snow mix later.


Put some brats on the top rack for dinner tonight.


Covered the smoked brat with sweet kraut and spicy mustard.


There will be plenty more pics to come. Abts, fatties and almonds are in the works. Stay tuned......

Butts have been on about 4 hours. Also put in 2 lbs of almonds.

And now the grand finale.. The butts didn't hit 200 internal til 5am and I was fighting rain and wind and tending to the fire a lot more that normal to try and keep temps up. That is why I wasn't in chat much. (sorry I wasn't more socialable during the overnighter).

Here is the first but out of the cooler after a 4 hour nap. I slept for the same 4 hours and nixed the breakfast fattie I was gonna make.


Bone slid right out.


First butt is pulled, second one is about to be. Another shot of the bone coming out clean


Pulled heap of pork!!



I had mentioned in another thread that my wife wanted appetizers fresh off the smoker served Sunday afternoon so I fired the smoker up again on Sunday late morning. Even though this is what I woke up to.


Gonna make some abts. Nice bigs jalapenos


Smoker loaded up with abts, meatballs and 2 big batches of wicked beans (one batch with no jalapeno for the kids).


Abts are done


My plate. Pulled pork sammie, dressed the pork with SoFlaQuers finishing sauce and topped it off with some of DaBoys sweet slaw. Good stuff.



Thanks again to everyone for participating in the Virtual Overnighter. I regret not being able to spend more time on the forum and in chat during the night. I was a bad host I guess. But it looked like everyone was having fun. So for that I am glad.
