I have thursdays off so I decided to do some pulled pork. Purchased 2 pork shoulders (bone in) at .99C a lb. One was 10# the other was 8.5#.
Removed the fat cap and used a mustard slather then rubbed with Webers sweet and tangy BBQ rub. All this was done last night and I also set up the smoker too. I got up at 2:30 this am and started the coals (minion of course). Butts went on at 3:30. The pick of the butts on the smoker was at 1.5 hrs and internal reading 120*. Smoker is hanging at 230*

Pork butts
 
At stop and shop. Usually I pay around $1.39 LB but once in a while they sell at .99. Plus I use my S&S card which saves me even more.
 
What time are you planning on eating them? I'm doing something similar for tmrw. and wanted to see when 'chow' time is for you, so I can plan for mine, accordingly.

thanks and good luck

Hi Scott,
Where are you getting butts for that money? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I hate to be a stick in the mud, but those are not pork butts, they are pork picnics. Both are from the shoulder, but the picnics come from the lower portion and the butt comes from the upper portion. In either case they both make good BBQ! I would buy picnics more often but you cannot find fresh ones around here, only enhanced..

wow- looks good as just last week-end smoked a shoulder -bought for like .98 per pd around 7.5 lbs. It had bone in it as well. Anyway, I usually do the boston butt but somehow I liked doing this whether it be a picnic or whatever the hell it was! It made great pulled pork- 1st time I fired up my wsm in a few months since I got an otg. I actually had the wsm doing the shoulder while at the same time had the otg just doing some basic burgers and dogs.
