I am not much of a racing fan as a matter of fact i would rather stay home and play with my sons hot wheels cars but i am invited to a daytona 500 party and must bring a dish to pass. My name was mentioned and was asked to smoke some butts. I am out of town on saturday getting home after 2 am and and still buzzing is way to late to start any butts on the smoker so i want to sleep a little. What i want to do is start them on the smoker maybe at 6am - 2 eight pounders - add as much apple wood to them and smoke for about 2 1/2 hours then finish in the oven on high heat 350-375 or higher and wrapping them at the 160 degree mark. The party starts at 2pm how much time would i need to finish ? Would i have enough time?

6 hrs does seem to be pushing it. I do my quick cook butts on the WSM by running at 300* the whole cook. When the butts hit 165* internal I foil them and put them back on the smoker. That still takes between 7 and 8 hrs depending on the butt.

Just cook a big pork loin you can do that I in about 1.3-2hrs. Cook to 150 let it rest slick and throw on a bun. then you can get sleep and your boys will still love the great BBQ.

after talking it over with the party host,we decided on 6 racks of baby backs. going with the 4-1-1 method which will allow me to get some sleep with plenty of time to cook before the race. they also agreed to split the cost of the ribs seeing it would an expensive dish to pass for myself.
