more pulled pork

[wanna-be-smoker]

I was going to cook this for Sunday but instead we are going to watch the kid college bowling on Sunday. so the butt I was gonna cook on Sunday is in now In the cooker.

It's a 9 pound bone in butt that I seasoned with Smokey roasted garlic and onion rub. It's a local rub that I got awhile ago and have not used much.

It's 13 below zero with the 5 MPH winds and the trusty cooker is purring along. I'm in no hurry and I got lotssss of time and pellets lol.

12 hours in and she is at 165( cooled off a bit while getting the snack sticks in) so I think she is slowly coming out of the stall. 13 below zero and the cooker purred from 180-240 for 12 hours straight and used less than half a hopper of pellets. Prob 6-7 pounds of pellets.

Or just plain nuts! :eek:
Just kidding, I'm glad to see you guys don't let a little cold weather slow you down!

im going to pull it and vacuum seal and freeze it in smaller quantities for my mom/niece and also my nephew who is coming in tomorrow from NYC

 

[wanna-be-smoker]

16 hours in and at 181 and the wind has kicked up to 20 mph and its snowing like hell so i cranked it to 250 to speed up the process. I also ran out of the normal stuff i normally spritz with so i improvised.

I thinned down a little some real maple syrup and added some of the rub i put on in the beginning and just been basting a little here and there
