I have another free weekend and decided earlier in the week to do a butt this weekend. Well I purchased a 6.7lb butt yesterday and decided to have it for lunch today. Last night I slathered it up with mustard and an Applewood dry rub, saran wrapped it and put her back to sleep for a few hours. Packed the AMNPS with Pecan and headed to bed. Set my alarm for 2AM, woke up at 1:30 a little excited, used the MES remote from Bed, turned the smoker on and slept till 2. Got up, shoved everything in the smoker and let her rip. Reading about the 40-140 in 4 rule I ended up waking up around 6 and we were at 156 so all was good. Since it was my first time smoking over night, I was excited and the wife was worried, lol. Got up at 7AM this morning and we are looking good. Second pic is of 5 hours in. There's really no bark yet so I'm wondering if I shouldn't have used mustard as the adhesion or is it too earlly. Got about 6ish hours or so left. Oh and I'm ordering a maverick today for ease of mind with the next overnighter
