Smoking Pork Butt on the Pellet Smoker
« Reply #-1 on: September 22, 2013, 02:37:35 PM »
Well, next week the opportunities for smoking meat and cooking a variety of dishes is going to be delayed for a while. So my wife and decided that the best thing to do would be to make a pork butt and a brisket, divide the meat into serving sizes for two, vacuum seal the packages, and freeze them for future use. So, yesterday, I put a pork butt on the pellet smoker and left it alone until I had to foil and then remove as it was done. I put it on at 2:00 PM and it finished at 2:17 AM for a 12 hour cook.

The pellet smoker is so easy to set up and use. Once the food is placed in the pellet smoker, I went back to my recliner, turned on another football game, took a nap, made dinner on the Weber, and relaxed until I had to foil the pork butt which was around 9:30 PM. Then, I just watched TV, browsed LTBBQ and removed the Pork Butt when the alarm went off on the Maverick when the internal temperature hit 205.

Here's a video of the process. The reason the sound is low on the last clip is because I did not want to wake my wife at 2:00 AM in the morning.

Today, it's pizza for the family dinner.
