  • Split, cleaned butt method

    Since I gotta do 4 butts for a golf outing, thought I'd try them split and cleaned up, Al'a Seboke's method. I split 'em a little different... I followed the big sinew/fat vein and seperated the bone and it's muscles from the "upper" all meat/money muscle groups. Seems to be working so far...ALOT "cleaner" cook... less than half the grease. 2 butts and I have not had to drain my deflector yet :{) Here's a shot 3 hours in...just got a second coat of the Mad Hunky.

        Interesting...I'm doin' 4 butts this weekend for a gig later in July. Please let us know how this method comes out. My plan is to smoke and pull this weekend, add the finishing sauce and then freeze into containers. Any thoughts about this? Anyone?

            I'm freezing in Vac-Pak for re-heat in hot water. So far so good. got 8 hours on them with apple and hickory, and foiled in the oven at 350 now to 200. Clean smoke...hardly any fat run-off in the smoker. Prolly see it in the foiled pans, but nowhere near what I usually see.

            We'll see on the moistness...

                        Gotta say... it's the way to go. More barq, less grease... easier to pull/clean. And no loss of moistness whatsoever. Whack da cap! And clean up the big stuff inside. It's a pleasure to pull. :{)

                        I'll take pix on the next 2 butts.

                          Looks good, I've been thinking about doing some butts this way to cut down on cook time. The last four I did whole and took almost 20 hours @ 225.

                            the problem with that is i don't cook butts or (anything for that matter) for the "big picture". i cook for that one special bite or taste and one of those things is the very thin layer of meat under the fat cap that i just scrape of with my fingers to reveal. it is so tender and full of melted fat it just melts in yer mouth......it don't even get close to teeth. it only happens once per butt and i will not give it up......for anything!

                              Oh man, I am with you there. I never cut my fat caps off and love that layer just underneath it. Nom!
