Hey guys. Doing my first ever smoke right now. It’s a 8 pound pork butt. I injected it with some apple juice/salt mix and rubbed it down with yellow mustard, Salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder. Put it on at about 8am this morning.
I’m using kingsford professional brickettes. The wholesale store had 36 pounds for $18 so that’s what I got. Temps has been rock solid around 255-270. I have two vents closed all the way and one open about 1/4”.
I wrapped the butt at 168 degrees. It sat there for about an hour. Dribbled a little of the apple juice/salt mix into the foil and double wrapped the butt. It’s currently at 172 internal. It’s going amazing so far. I can’t wait to try some tonight when it’s all done resting.
