Title: Little Butt on the big cooker!
Post by: LostArrow on July 14, 2013, 10:54:25 AM
I was digging around in my meat freezer looking for ribs & found a cryo-vac package that had leaked  :o
It was a 5 lb butt I had bought on sale & vacuum sealed 2 months ago.
It wasn't freezer burned yet, but I decided I'd better cook.
In a water bath for 30 min , partially thawed.
Coated with Sweet Baby Rays to hold the rub & some homemade rub.
Cooking indirect in the main chamber in my Horizonal cooker.
Charcoal bed, plan on using oak for main fuel.

What are you going to do with that beauty of a grill LA, when you downsize???  That grill would look sweet at the hunt camp......

Hunting camps can either be lots of fun or trouble. Depends who you are talking to. Husband or wife.

Cool looking smoker.

LA is keeping it real. That is an old school charcoal and wood smoked pork butt. Bet that sucker pulls nice and easy.

Very good. I think I like little butts better, cook faster, more seasoning area & smoke.
Plate with mixed beans & corn.

Yep, LA, I prefer the smaller size, too, for the same reasons.  8 pounders take so long to cook and rest, but when I have the butcher cut into 2 pieces, it is much easier to cook.  Sometimes I'll just remove the bone myself and slice it in two.

great looking color to it.  how long did it take to cook?  how often did you have to add fuel to it?  the pulled pork has great bark to it.  I would like a plate plz.   :)
