OK so tomorrow morning I am going to smoke my first butt 6.7lbs. Been ready thread after thread and I am quite confident that I know what I am doing but looking for any last minute advise, and or tips that a newbie may forget.
So going to do the mustard rub with brown sugar salt pepper paprika garlic onion and some Cayenne pepper, rub will be applied this afternoon and ill hit the smoker roughly 6 am tomorrow.
Using the "red bullet" with the hickory chunks. I have learned to get the TBS by using one chunk at a time which the will last about 2 hours each. Temp hovers right about 220 230 and being electric I should be able to hold that exact temp the entire time.
So looking for last minute advise, tips, things to watch out for so on so forth..... I will post pics as I go along
And of course I will be on the look for 140° in no more than 4 hours.
Thanks again!! Glad I found this site.
