That's some good looking pig there, Cliff.
Hope you made out okay with the weather... that was one bad storm moving across the country.

My wife asked why one of the butts was mushy. She is my best/worst critic.
Out of four butts of different weights the two larger butts were a bit mushy. I noticed that even though the temp was at 195 they felt heavy and soft compared to the smaller ones.
After resting, I noticed that the largest butt had a lot more oil in the foil than the rest of them and it was the one that was at 199 when I took them off.
I tried to take them all off at the same time by averaging the temps between the top and bottom grate.
I guess the question is:
What is the best way to smoke a wsm load of butts ?
ps: I did not foil.
