44 LBs of Pork Butts cooking with a Jumbo Joe Grill

[KeithFWI]

It was a heavy load but the Jumbo Joe pulled it off. It was easy getting up too temp even with all that cold meat...Might have been 10-15 and it was over 400*

They did start to fall off the hooks when we were pulling them but not a big deal since i had a grate safety net. 5 1/2 hours and it had a nice mahogany bark, did a 3 hour rest in the cooler.

It does make me think about a bbq catering business someday. The meats fed about 100 people but not everyone eats pork of course.

....lol and the legs held up! Figured something like 60 lbs total with the pot on the J Joe. Weber makes a good little grill!
