Title: Sweet Butts!
Post by: Cajunate on June 15, 2016, 06:49:13 PM

I decided to use my Traeger to smoke two butts that come up to just under twenty four pounds. Both got a good slathering of Louisiana honey and then rubbed down with two different rubs. One was a homemade rub a friend gave me and the other was New Orleans original Firehouse Backdraft Butt & BBQ Rub. The one on the left is the homemade rub which is a bit more sweeter than the other. They went on about 10:00 this morning.

After seven hours at 171* internal temperature.

About 8:20 pm last night the butts were done. I brought them inside and let them sit on the counter until they were cool enough to pull which was about 10 pm.

They were so tender it was hard to keep 'em from falling apart when removing from the Traeger.

They have an excellent smoke ring and flavor.
