It's for 16 year old boys. They are just gonna sauce the shite out of it anyway. Just throw the dang thing in the smoker and hot & fast that bitch. Pull it whenever they are hungry.

Can't be serious!

If so, do you really believe that is "research"?

A bunch of 16 year old actual born xy boys are gonna scarf down any greasy meat substance in a bun they see. It's not like they are the Michelin Review Team sent to critique the ambiance and overall presentation.

16 year old kids will slog on a cheap bottled BBQ sauce like Kraft and never notice the loving care of a precise blend of herbs and spices formulated through trial and error and science over the course of a lifetime.

Know your audience! Put together something 16 year old self absorbed uninformed knowitalls operating on pure hormonal impetus can consume en masse, quickly, as they lack an attention span to focus for longer than seconds.

In other words, smoke it over a pine 2x4 until safely edible than stand back and let 'em rip.

I did this when I first started smoking pork butts but I've moved on to the large turkey roasting bags. Easier to deal with in my opinion but we know what opinions are like :-)

Gotcha...so this "research" is published by the Beyond Today magazine, which is a publication by the United Church of God. I'm sure this "research" was done with no bias and agenda at all

That's some damn fine science you've got there. Airtight research!

I mean his research is the Bible. And that's science enough for me.

Rub down with liberal amount of seasoning and throw on 225-270 degree smoker for probably close to 9hrs. It will stall for a little while around 165, but just be patient with it and it will power through. I like to take it off around 200-205, but its personal preference. Wrap and let it rest for 30 min before you pull it apart. For a little extra kick I like to add some crushed red pepper after I pull it.

That's probably good as well, but I never have Turkey bags around.

I have done a few bone in butts now. It's a pretty forgiving thing to smoke. I rub the night before and wrap in saran wrap. I usually start an 8 lb at 9:00 am if I want to eat at about 7. I haven't really experienced much of a stall so have never wrapped. I usually pull at 200-205 and let it rest about an hour before pulling the bone and shredding.

Get a spray bottle and hit it with apple cider vinegar every hour or 2 at first. Once the fat starts rendering in the bottom of the pan, I like to pour some bourbon in the juice and baste with thatg every hour or so.... They are fun! Enjoy!

I tried it before with less salt and I couldn't taste a thing. 1/4 cup and it was was just enough IMHO. I think the other flavors mix in so much you don't get one overwhelming one.
