    I have started prepping my first Boston Butt cook. I have trimmed a lot of the fat from top of the butts and I have rubbed them with Meathead's Memphis Dust (recipe from Memphis Dust). Here is what I have so far: I am going to get the smoker going at 5 pm using the Minion method with Apple and...
