high heat butts

[DW Frommer II]

I knw that butts and shoulders can be done much like high heat brisket...foil at 165°, etc... but what temps are best for the cook? 325° at the lid?

DW:

If you're looking for 5hrs and under, I'd do closer to 350 to 375 lid.

I've only done high heat butts once, and they didn't come out as great as the low and slow.

See what you think, there's a few that won't ever do low and slow again.

Don't forget to use empty water pan.

Here's a link to a HH butt cook I did last week...

Here's a link to the Kick arse way of doin a butt as Ken K did.


Hope that helps.

On Edit..
I like to spank my start up a little slower, so more towards a 6-7 hr cook. I just pulled a 10 pounder off the WSM, started @ 10 am, falling apart tender and the " main line " juice you get from a butt is the best!!
