You can't always live on your laurels ... I love my pulled pork but once in a while it's nice to do something else with a Pork Butt.  Took a 5 lb Boneless Pork Butt and using my turbo method stopped when the butt reached an IT of 187ºF.  Rested it for 20 minutes before serving.  In the GMG Davy Crockett at 12:30 pm and feasted at 5:30 pm!!

Nice work Pete.  I always slice a good portion of any butt that I do.  That is the best part, especially when it is still really hot.

That is one serious plate of food! Every part of it looks great. I like the idea of something different... or in the words of Monty Python... "Now for something completely different..."

Fantastic plate of food Pete. By the way what is your "turbo" method? If you mentioned it before
I must have missed it.

My Turbo method:

Note ...

I use this same method for pulled pork except I remove when the IT reaches 200-205ºF instead of 187ºF and then FTC for 3-4 hours.  Like I said:  "In at 12:30pm - out at 5pm/rest 30 minutes".

For pulled pork I put it in at 8:30am and it's usually at 200-205ºF by 1:30-2:00pm and then FTC till 5pm

Why 187ºF? ... I attended a BBQ cooking class and the stick burner teaching that part of the course used 187ºF and I haven't found any reason to change it.  No more overnight cooks for me ... I'm getting too old for that stuff   :D :D

Looks great and thanks for the turbo method! Going to try that on a couple of butts tomorrow night.
