Hi Shawn, I've done Butts HH on the Kettle (350+) a few years back using indirect heat over a water filled drip pan about 4 hrs with good results, but never on the WSM. You got me thinking about trying it. I still like the the low and slow the best. Overnighter's to me are a blast!
Hi JB, I've never foiled a Butt, always had good results in the 15 to 16 hr range for a 7 to 9 lb one without injecting. Seems to be enough fat to keep meat plenty moist.
