EHKK Posted December 11, 2011 Report Posted December 11, 2011 Re: Xmas party Butts Beautiful! What is on/in them? How long did you cook them?
mk1 Posted December 11, 2011 Author Report Posted December 11, 2011 Re: Xmas party Butts I soaked them for several hours in a brown sugar salt vinegar garlic Ice bath. The rub was a mixture of white and brown sugar, salt, cumin, paprika, pepper, chili, garlic, and onion powders. Cooked at 225 for 14.5 and 16.5 hours. One weighed 8.5 pounds the other weighed 10.5. Both were cooked to an internal temp of 195.

Porkchop Posted December 12, 2011 Report Posted December 12, 2011 Re: Xmas party Butts the picture on the bottom actually looks like a shoulder, not a butt. can't tell for sure with the top pic. personally i think shoulders cook nicer than the butts too. looking very nice! i actually like to trim the skin on the top away from the shoulder, but leave it attached at the leg bone, and put my rub on the meat, then cover it back up with that skin.
