I just love picnics.....it's the romantic in me.


I actually smoked this for the camping trip because I was concerned about not having enough bbq...boy was I wrong...hehe, I had so much pulled pork left over after the camping trip I didn't know what to do with it all. The raccoons down at Arbuckle may find themselves a bit fatter after our camping weekend.

I had wanted to just do a shoulder butt; however, this was all the Wal-Mart had. I was pretty unsure about it but said, "Heck, with enough sauce and smoke on it no one will tell the difference. I prepared this pretty much like I did before, I just had to be a little more careful when placing the thermometer so that the probe wasn't hitting the bone. I also added more wood this time so I could get a bit more smoke into the meat.

I started this on a Sunday night and just let it go all the next day while I was at work (thank you BBQ Guru.) I pulled the butt off the egg around 6 pm (it was @ 190) and let it sit in some foil to rest for a bit. Man, this one turned out really awesome, much better smoke and it pulled so easy, man was it good. Oh did I mention I had to sacrifice some in the name of science...for dinner.
