I usually use mustard. Honey sounds great though.

What temp were you at before you bumped it up and how big is the butt? It's crazy that 12 hours in, it's only at 162. Mine are usually ready to pull after going about an hour a lb, and I keep to 240-250 in the primo.

Still no real clue what I’m doing, but chugging along. After a couple hours, pork reached 154. It’s only a 2.9lber, but also I probably ran it a bit too hot not having a grill thermometer.

Wrapped and back in until 185. Ribs will pull a bit before and unwrap to finish.

I have a shoulder in the oven braising (my normal method) in case I ruin all of this. I got the shoulders each for $2 at the Winn Dixie sale so it’s as good a time as any to experiment.

Cooked one yesterday...lathered it with some Frank's red hot sauce..Then coated it with some suped up Adam's pork rub.. Did the snake method on my Weber for about 7 hours..Could have used more time but it was getting late.. I tore it up last night and just put some in the oven covered in some sauce..

Awesome! Noted.

Pork is inside hanging out until dinner later. Ribs seen plenty done but just doing a few thin sauce layers first.

Butt was fantastic. Also had cornbread, slaw, smoked mac and cheese, elote, and Hawaiian rolls.

Well I for one can’t wait to see what you will turn out once you know what you’re doing.
Looks really good.

I’d wake up to that

Just put mine on... hoping they’ll be ready to pull between 8-10am tomorrow if not a little later. They’ll sit tight in a cooler wrapped in towels if they come off to early and still stay plenty hot
