Late to the party here. Was camping and frying homemade smoked bacon!

Wow, you guys cook your butts hot and fast! 8 pounders usually take me 12-15 hours @ 225. I take them to 205. In the past I finished them on the smoker. Now I foil @ 160 or so, double foil and finish in oven. Tastes the same and it's a little easier. Bark may not be as crisp, but doesn't change the finished product.

I follow Alton Brown's recipe for brine and rub ==> http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/pulled-pork-recipe.html

I have smoked quite a few butts with that recipe, my slow cook technique above, apple and cherry wood chunks and cowboy charcoal with my Smokenator 1000. I take a lot of advice and use some recipes (bacon, pastrami, fish) from Meathead over at http://amazingribs.com

Here's a couple of pics of my last two butts (last month) and my first batch of maple bacon (last week). We fried up some bacon "under the dome" while camping just a few days ago. Great reviews!!

camper bob:  did not turn out well.  i thought i would splurge a bit and bought cowboy charcoal as i heard it was good stuff.  cooked the butt for 9.5 hours.  the smoker never got above warm (thermometer on smoker, thought maybe it just wasn't accurate).  after 9.5 hours (never took the top off by the way but did restock charcoal and chips via side door) only the outside was edible, rest was not nearly done.  i guess the thermometer was correct!!!!!  was a big bummer after waiting and smelling it all day long.  oh well, will go back to regular coals next time.  hogone

I just smoked an 8.5 lb butt yesterday.  Can try either 250 or 275 degrees.  When internal hits 190, pull and wrap in foil and return to  heat for two hours.  Take off and pull.  I smoked at 250 degrees starting at 7 AM.  Hit internal of 190 at 4 P.M.  Removed from Cookshack and wrapped in foil and put back for two hours.  Pulled at 6.  Tried a South Carolina sweet vinegar sauce this time.  Very good.  Safe Travels.
