hickory pork butt

[jaso]

well after drooling over all the great looking pork butts done lately I finally decided to smoke one myself (the wife doesn't like pork so I stick to briskets normally).

Went to Sam's club and picked up a nice two pack (17 lbs)


injected with a combo of Dale's seasoning and garlic blended together


Then I scored one side and applied some carolina rump shake


into the smoke we go started about 6 pm saturday night during a bonfire so I was able to keep an eye on it all night

wrapped it up at 170 and then took it up to 200






It smelled so good coming off the smoker I was barely able to get the pics taken before people were shredding it for me

for your first one. It looks good. To bad about wifey & her choice. It seems as if we live by their choices, huh?
