Well, I dozed off and let the fire get down to 150. BAAAAD BBQ'er. It's now 4:15 and I'm half-craxed with drink and sleep.
I must admit that I aborted the mission a little early. Meat temp was 190 and I went ahead and ripped into the butt. Yeah, I know...but the bone pulled right out, I tell ya! It's not melt apart tender ('cause it's still not to 200), and still a little firm, but I was able to pull some nice hunks off of it. I took some pics and ate me some pork. Tasty.
I'll post pics later and I've re-wrapped it with more foil and I'm going to let it sit in the Weber for a couple of hours. It should keep it at safe temp and, who knows, it might actually do the same as putting it in a cooler. Of course, I've violated the integrity of the butt, so who knows...
I haven't eaten since a late breakfast, so I was pretty hungry and I couldn't help myself. Too much alcohol, too much sleep and a little too much drunken impatience just did me in...
Think I'll lay down for a while and see what it's like a little later.
