Title: Birthday Butts
Post by: squirtthecat on January 12, 2013, 09:40:36 AM

Coworker's son is turning 3, and asked for BBQ for his party.  (I think the parents/grandparents had a hand in that as well  ;))

4 butts, slathered up with a little CYM and a heap of Salt Lick Clone.

Ran the Traeger at 180 for a while to take the chill off of them and roll some smoke.   Then bumped to 225 for the overnight ride.

Went for a look while the coffee is brewing..

Perfecto.

Wrapped tight and parked in a cooler for now.   Will pull and bag up later (setting aside a 1/2 pound for a couple test sammies), and vacuum seal tomorrow.

I like a good bark to mix in and you nail it.

Nicely Done.

13-ish hours.  Temps were in the 40s-50s.

Not this time.   Trying to dial in a simple yet super tasty flavor profile.   ;)
