Tag team butt cook

[Cliff H.]

6 butts on the uds and 4 butts on the wsm. Cooking overnight for a Church function in Nashville. I did this last year with great results but last year I smoked 8 butts on the uds and vowed never to try that again.

On at 10 pm. I am going to run a little hotter cuz I want to be pulling pork before noon.

Team work.

Meat looks real good. I've often wondered why they weren't just called a drum smoker - now I know.

Great job Cliff! I do a similar cook for our firemans fair. I was doing 6 picnics per smoke, 4 cooks in total 2 months before the fair. It is a lot of work when it's time to do the pulling and shrink wrapping. I hope the function was a sucsess.

Deefinitly look good!! I usually foil butts for the last cpl hours, keeps em wicked moist especially if they be a bit small...

Just a quick note to let everyone know that the function and the bbq was a great success.

95 lbs of vac pac butts made 45 lbs of finished pulled pork.

I foodsavered 3lb portions and reheated in a microwave. This is not the prefered method but last year it worked out good and this year was no different.

Each bag took a total of 6 minutes to heat. After 3 min I would knead the unopened bag of meat. After six min the bag would have to be handled with gloves cuz it was very hot. Cut open and served immediatley made for some very moist bbq.

As the pan ran low I would zap another bag. I carried 15 3lb bags with me and came home with 0 bags.

6 lbs of slaw went away also.

Nice job, Cliff! I'll bet you made a bunch of people happy.
