Not my 75th, but another beautiful butt
« Reply #-1 on: February 19, 2013, 01:09:19 PM »
Got a butt in the SRG.  Injected with Scott's bbq sauce and rubbed with magic bbq seasoning.  It's looking good so far.  I don't care what the purists say, I'm having bbq for dinner!

OH you got to try it!   Infrared butts are wonderful!

 Just don't use a rub with sugar in it or you will end up with a black bowling ball!

Give hints!  Can you start frozen?  I kinda figured no sugar rub ;D  with the high heat.  I've got a few butts in the freezer that are calling my name!

I don't see why you can't start frozen, but I've never tried it, so I don't know.  A butt in the SRG takes about 30 min/lb  on low.  I usually foil my butt at 160o because I don't like a lot of bark.  The SRG butt will be moister, but you won't get as much smoke flavor.  It's a trade off.  Hope this is enough to give it a try.  I think you'll be pleased.  Since Tommy has 75 of them under his belt, maybe he has some other hints.

This right up my alley! 

I never start one frozen so I can't say yes or no but I'd bet it wouldn't work the way you want it to.

I start by rubbing the butt with CYM then my rub, I start the SRG on high top down for 15 mins to get the pellets going good (I do use the Tommy Ring  8)  )   I set the basket in the chamber and let it go another 15 min's to start a good bark then turn to low and top down . after 4 hrs I check IT Now this is for butts 7 lbs and up .  If doing a smaller butt I ck IT  at the 3 hr mark.   I pull at 200 to 205 IT  foil and set them in my Cambro holder (any cooler would work) for 2 hrs then remove and pull.

You will have a stall around 165 to 170 but it won't last long

Hey it was good enough for 7th place at a cook off going up against BGE's and wood burners  8)

If not enough info let me know,   I know infrared butts!  ;)

Exactly..what in the heck is a purist anyway? Do they get picked (by another purist  :o) or do they just decide it upon themselves to start calling themselves that?

Our taste buds have no idea what that meat was cooked on anyhows..........

Yum yum it was good.  Even the wife raved about tonight's pulled pork.  She hasn't done that before.  I think the change was that I injected this butt and I normally don't inject.  I guess that'll change.  Anyhow, here's a pic of the butt coming out of FTC.  Had to slide that bone out for the picture.  Look how clean.  Then I threw on my black knight gloves and worked that meat between my fingers.  No tools required.  And there's a pic of a bowl of pulled pork.  (It's moister than the photo shows.)

9.9 Would be a 10.0 but I didn't get any!!!   ;)

I made it my mission to show purist that pulled pork does not have to be done the old fashion way.  You helped prove my point along with all the others who cook butts this way  ;)
