Make sure you have air flow, damper on on your fire box, You can kick that temp up to 250º - 275º the Butt has hat and can the heat
without drying out, And it will lesson the cooking time

Yeah, theres the only problem, i have one of those cheap kingsford water smokers, so the actual fire doesnt have a damper, only one on top of the smoker itself. I could leave the door cracked but i lose heat that way.

I'm afraid all you can do is wait it out, unless you want to wrap it. I always wrap my butts. I have a MES 30 and don't get a lot of bark anyway.
