Good morning. I haven’t done any BBQ in a very long time. Bought some boston butts this past week on sale for $1.00 a pound. Put one butt on and covered the lid at 2:55 AM this morning for supper tonight.

Looks like a big butt there.
The butts are .99 cents @ lb here so I might go pick up a few myself.
 
Update

Butt is at 161 degrees. It has been on for 8 hours and 25 minutes. Made some BBQ slaw now sitting in the refrigerator.

Update

Butt is done. It was so good. Bake Beans, Lexington BBQ slaw, and homemade ciabatta bread (made last night). It really has been a very long time since I smoked a boston butt or anything.

I had wrapped it with foil at 170 degrees which was about 2:15 PM. It reached 195 by 4:20 PM and I double wrapped it with foil then a towel and placed it in a cooler until ready to pull which was 6:35 PM.

All in all a very good day besides the wind.

Cliff,

Are you talking about the pictures with the bone on top. I can't remember if the flash cause it or without the flash. We got a Nikon 5100 camera in January and I'm still trying to figure out the bells and whistles (aperture setting, shutter speed, flash or no flash, etc.):confused:. There were some pictures that I didn't post because of a real yellow tint.
 
There was no yellow looking at it with the naked eye. It was the lighting with the different camera settings I was trying. The camera has a food setup and I use it and then I just used auto. At times my point and shoot is much easier to use.
