15.6 lb Butt

Recommended Posts

Hello gents,

Picked up this baby today and I'll be smoking her tonight. 15.6lb home-in butt from Cooks Pork (quite possible the best pork this side of Iberico - www.cooks pigs.com). It's got a thick fat cap and skin on, so I scored the skin very deep, all the way to the meat, and will smoke it at about 225-240 ideal for as long as it takes.

Has anyone done a butt this big? Would greatly appreciate any tips.

12 hours in, she's doing great! KK was awesomely temperature stable overnight, especially since I put this monstrous butt on before it was heat soaked. I used very little airflow so the temp would rise slowly, so as not to overshoot, and it worked beautifully.
