+1 Al's Hot and Fast. No wrong way to do butt. They are quite forgiving and variations of technique do not create a large impact as many think. Although I inject, I prefer not to add much seasoning after pulling so that everyone can tweak at serving. JJ's finish sauce is killer for that and if you have not already done so get Jeff's rub and sauce recipe STAT. The sauce is totally world class.
WRT pulling resting etc, do what seems practical. I prefer to do most of the labor in advance so I can enjoy myself later but I can imagine a family having a ball pulling and serving. I'd pull that night and put in covered pans in an oven set at 170F for next day bit totally agree the resting in towels and a cooler is fine, I just won't get permission to use our towels for that. Does the smell wash out? :)
