Molasses slathered Pork Butt

Awesome looking pork butt and photos Mike! I agree with Don about the use of towels.
A cheap welding blanket could save you lots of bucks!

I don't have any first-hand experience with them but I've read that some welding blankets shed fiberglass. 

This one is supposed to be felt-like and fiberglass free — http://www.amazon.com/Tillman-Welding-Blanket-Thermofelt-615/dp/B0042AU5HW
Thanks for the link. Free shipping too!

Great job on the butt Mike!

And there is no shame in eating grill scrapins' that look that good. Much better than toaster leavins' ;)

Wish it had been 47 here last week when I did my last one for a church dinner.  In addition to being in the mid 20's, it was fairly windy and had a hard time keeping the temp steady to smoke, even with another big grill as a windbreak (using the 940x with SMK attachment).  Finally gave up, double wrapped in foil and finished in the oven.   Just wasn't the same, and think it didn't get warm enough (certainly not enough smoke) in those two hours to make it act like a real butt.    Very disappointed.  I eventually got it pulled, but the flavor was far from what I expected.

Looks Excellent...I just did a brisket with a molasses brushing and I really like the bark it created....

That's a great looking butt - I've not tried molasses yet
