Is it possible to trim away too much fat on a Boston Butt?
The last few smokes, I've been trimming inside a cavity on the underside of my butts. It's an area that seems to harbor silver skin and vessels. During seasoning, I'll fill this cavity with rub, too, before placing the meat in the fridge to sit overnight. I noticed the meat was bit on the warm side (with cayenne). Maybe I should leave the cavity unseasoned.
