Title: Hot PBC Butt on a chilly day
Post by: mikecorn.1 on January 05, 2014, 08:01:54 PM: Just a quick thread for something to look at. Put a butt in the PBC today. Injected with apple cider, soy and Zack's. Rubbed with EVOO and Zack's. Left in the fridge overnight wrapped tightly with some Clear wrap. Took 7 hours total.
It was 50F all day. I used 3 hooks and put the grill grate in just in case. The grate wasn't needed.

Post by: aliengriller on January 05, 2014, 10:23:25 PM: That's what I'm planning on the butt cooking Tuesday, pulled, and then warmed up for a church dinner Wednesday night! IF it comes out close to that, I'll be a happy camper!

This one was 5 hours naked and 2 in foil. The bark is not, how can I describe, as crusty as an all the way naked butt because it as you know, it steams in the foil. It was a bit more moist than the one I made 2 weeks ago.
I foiled because I didn't know if I was going to be able to get to 195F before I ran out of heat. It was cold for here that day and windy.

Post by: Ka Honu on January 07, 2014, 10:06:07 PM: Well, since this will be my first PBC butt (already injected with Carolina Treet, covered with rub, and resting in the fridge) I guess I better go with Noah's instructions (at least initially) and foil at about 160^o. I can experiment after that. Thinking about opening the foil at about 180-185^o to see if it will "recrisp" the bark. Any thoughts or suggestions?

I think that would work. Getting it thru the stall, then taking the foil. I was thinking about doing that myself but I don't think I would of had enough heat to finish it off.
I have done that in my Traeger before with good bark results.

Finish in your oven at 450F to crisp it back up Turtle.
