So, after much reading, and visiting a local Barbecue competitor, I decided to try a pork butt! ( I can honestly say I have never even eaten pulled pork once in my life) so this will be a trip....
On Wednesday I talked to a local butcher and he told me he could get me a good pork butt. I told him I wanted to pick it up Saturday for a Sunday smoke. No, problem...he said he would have it ready for whenever I wanted to pick it up! When I went today, he said he cut it this morning. (I assume that's a good thing) it worked out to $26.96 for a 3.4kg piece of meat. (7.5 pounds) I figure that's decent as well!
I rubbed it tonight with a simple recipe of Paprika, brown sugar, salt , pepper, ceyanne, and dry mustard. I did NOT put yellow mustard on the butt prior to rubbing it...I hope that won't be a problem.
It's in the fridge for the night, and my alarm is set for 4:30 am. As soon as I figure out how to add pictures from my ipad.....
