Ok, I've done brisket, all types of ribs, turkey, and chicken. Now, for the piece d'resitance, I'm going to do my first butt. I researched different cooking options, rubs, etc on this site, as I always do, BUTT I still have a few questions.
1. just to make sure, I bought two 7lb pork shoulders at Costco. Shoulder is the same as butt, right?
2. I plan on an overnight cook starting friday around 10pm. With cooking, and storing wrapped in a cooler, is good bet to say we can eat around 4pm saturday?
3. to thaw the 2 7lb'ers for friday night. How soon should I take them out of the freezer and into the fridge?
As always, thanks for the excellent advice!!
