I like pig butts and I can not lie....
« Reply #-1 on: September 26, 2016, 12:56:51 AM »
Have been wanting to take another attempt at smoking a pork butt for quite some time now and found myself with a free day this weekend.
I got a 6.25 lb  butt  which  I dry brined  overnight.   I had planned to use  my go to pork rub, a variation of  Memphis Dust, but found  I was  almost out.  So I used about  half  of the MD and half  PBCs Beef and Game rub.

Hung it for about  3 and a half hours  till i reached   162 degress, before  I pulled and wrapped it.

Cooked it  about  2 hours and 15 min longer before it was ready to be pulled.
I let it rest  for  a bit over an hour before I got hungry and impatient, so I unwrapped it to take a look.

This one came out way  better than my 1st try, much more moist and pulled effortlessly.

Ate it on some Hawaiian rolls with some cole slaw
