I went to the hunting camp so i purchased a 7.25 lb butt from publix, already trimmed down. Wanted to put it on the electric at camp, but ended up coming home a day early and didn't get to cook it. At home, I have the Brinkman charcoal and knew such a long cook would be a big problem on that unit (still haven't bought the WSM, but i will). Anyway, I figured out how to make the brinkman charcoal into a gas unit. I put the brinkman on top of a very low standing gas fryer. It sat on top nicely, very stable and well balanced. I added the water and the meat at 6:45 this morning and hit 195 degrees by 5:15pm (10.5 hours). At little quicker than i expected but my grate heat was 250 degrees the whole time. Couldn't really get it lower without the flame going out. Anyway, the meat looks terrific and is very juicy. I am letting it rest before pulling, so i don't know how good it is yet.
