The push

[four20]

70 plates cancelled due to the weather Friday and I pack up gear and wait until next Friday.

The organizer called today: We need to pick up the meat.

ME: OK... all .. ?

ORG: no just what you cooked thursday.

ME: umm you called and cancelled only what was in the smoker came out cooked. I thought we were planning next friday.

ORG: Well we had complaints and if they don’t get their plates tomorrow we worry that most will want their money back.

ME: ok but I only cooked half

ORG: can you get me the other half tomorrow morning?

ME: CLICK F%$%&G Tard

So at 3:00 pm et I load 32 lb of butts. Box temp 0f 335-350 f. Idiots I told them 24 hrs advance before I started. I guess they had too much beer in their ears. IT 3.5 hrs later is 131 f. I figure wrap 155f to push the stall but keep em from drying out

Good luck!  People that don't smoke don't get it.  That temp should get them done, but your evening is screwed.

Congrats! Passed the test! Did you have to inject to protect during higher heat?

No 140 in 4 cant be achieved on that run down bbq grillware unit with its 15,000 btu burner injected. No bark with this push. 10 lb largest piece ( B G ) 11 lb yield per 16 #lb according to my scales unclean. After 7 hrs in the retarder i will run thru the chopper and see. It will get finishing sauce of 500 ml apple cider to 200 ml frozen apple concentrate.
