Curly Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 In case someone is out there at the moment. The Butt went on KK at 8pm last night. Pit temp kept at about 210 the whole time (except for an odd spike to the 240's at about 2am) , it's going on 20hrs. now and I had the internal temp up to about 181 - 182 degrees about an hour and a half ago. It's since slipped back to 177 although the dome temp is still up. Should I take it off now anyway? I was shooting for a 185 to 195 internal. I hope it's not already 'jerky' No, bump the temp up to 250 and then just wait for the butt to get to 195ish. Sometimes you need to bump up at the end to get the meat to the right temp. If the cooker is at 210 it may take a long long time to get there, so bump er up Like DJ, I usually cook mine at close to 250...seems to get the same result and take a lot less time.
