wrap in dry rub and wrap in plastic overnight
Before smoking take a little dry rub and mix it with apple juice in a sauce pan. heat on low heat and stir. Not all ingrediants will dissolve.
Inject into butt. pile brown sugar on top.
smoke the butt until it reaches 160-165 degrees. after that it is no longer drawing in smoke it is pushing liquid out. wrap now. bring butt up to 200 degrees....hold for an hour then take off and let it rest for couplke of hours. you can even do the final stage in an oven. I have even taken them off the smoker at about 2 am, wrapped them and put them in the oven at 200 degrees and gone to bed and pull them out at about 7 am.
open up, pull meat apart, discard any unmelted fat.

Since it's your first time I would spend a little time and watch a few prep videos on youtube, then google some recipes until you find one you like. Pork butt is an extremely forgiving meat, hard to screw it up too bad.
I personally put a rub on and inject and slow cook at 225-250. Depending on the size of the butt I smoke for a few hours then wrap in foil. Once it gets to 195-200 I take off and wrap the foil covered meat in a towel and put it in an empty ice chest for an hour.

This. My trick is, once it gets to 165 i wrap and let it sit until it gets to 190-200. Then i take it off, wrap it in a towel, and put it in a small ice chest and let it rest an hour.
