Butts are easy , smoke them at 225-250 an hour for each pound of weight. Take them off , double wrap in foil and put in a cooler for 2 hrs to "finish". Leave the thermometer in the kitchen drawer.



"Why do you ask"?

Too many people spend money they don't have , on things they don't need, to impress people they don't know.

That dont always work. When I first got my smoker, that's exactly what the book said do. It was good. But it would not pull apart. I watched alton brown and he explained about breaking down connective tissue. A thermometer, imo, is a valuable tool.

Always worked perfect for me.

I brine mine overnight, that's probably why mine take longer. When I'm doing a long smoke, I always add moisture to the meat.

Butt is done when you can pull the scapula out. That’s usually about 200 internal temp. That one pictured looks nowhere near done.

You don't think there's any meat on the thighs, but you prefer wings????
Do you know the difference??? Do you actually know what a thigh is????


I hate making a good first impression. There’s no way I can keep that shit up.

I agree with Outback. Get it to 160 and then slice it with a knife.

The only thing I would wanna get to 195 is a chicken.


I used to cook competition BBQ.... you wouldn’t stay on a judges table if your pork butt or shoulder was at 160 and 195 is nowhere near burnt. If you’re going to try to correct folks at least know what you’re talking about.



What? I didn't correct anybody in any way; I just said what I liked.

When you take pork off at 160, it isn't BBQ. It's just sliced pork when you fix it that way, and I like that better than 200 degree pork that's covered with sauce. It's just what I like; I wasn't in any way talking about winning a contest, and I don't think I even implied that. The pork in the picture would have been ok with me. I realize it isn't the way most cook it.

But while I enjoy pork that temp, I like chicken to be cooked more. I seldom eat anything except the dark meat, and I think it tastes better that way. It is also much easier on my digestive system when more of the fat cooks out. But it's ok with me if you want to eat differently. We aren't in a contest.


All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.
