I did my first butt today with the WSM I got from Amazon on Thursday. Here's how it went. Butt weighed 4.89 lbs. Went on WSM at 4:10AM @ grate temp of 270 degrees. Temp dropped to 247 and remained from 230-270 throughout remainder of cook time. The WSM is great for temp control. I was surprised. Finally took butt off at 2:00PM, which was 10 hrs. later. Internal temp never got above 182. It pulled a little stiff and I feel if it had gotten to 190-195 it might have pulled easier. Did I do something wrong? Impatient? How do you get the internal temp up.
