Got the automatic fan thing to keep temps stable and it has been dead in for 13 hours now. Hardest part last night was standing in the cold watching it with the beer inside. |

syf350, the insides of your grill are way too white! Oh, and the pork butts are done when they hit about 195-200 internal but some people take them off as early as 190. I don't. |

Grammar: it's the difference between "let's eat, Grandma!" and "let's eat Grandma!"

syf350, if you are leery of heavy smoke, get some apple wood chunks and maybe some pecan and/or cherry chunks. Those are very light tasting and you will not be over-smoking anything with those woods. Pork butts and briskets can take pretty much all the smoke you and throw at them. A lot of that "over-smoked" taste you get from commercial smoked meats comes from their use of liquid smoke and other cheesy gimmicks, including over-use of mesquite wood. That said, my favorite all-around wood to use for smoking is hickory.

And now I'm getting impatient, lol. Resisting the urge to crank it up for the final ten degrees.

One thing about the Digi-Q. When raising the pit temp, do it in small increments (about 10 or 15 degrees) and let it stabilize before going up more. If you just tell it to go up to 275 from 230, it will overshoot most likely. At least that has been my experience. |

I'd suggest wearing food-safe gloves, the heavier the better. My wife buys me thin latex gloves in a hundred-count box, I use the heck out of them. Makes handling chicken and other stuff a lot easier and you're not constantly having to wash your hands, just throw them in the trash after rubbing stuff all over raw meat. Plus it helps your hands from smelling like garlic or whatever else you rubbed on the meat, or staining them red from paprika or whatever. |

Cool. That will make the company happy. Told them they'd have to wait a couple hours after I pulled them.

One more thing I like to do with pulled pork. I mix up 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar with a 1/2 tsp of kosher salt and 1 tsp cayenne pepper (per butt) and after I pull the meat into shreds I sprinkle that mixture over the meat. The acid really wakes up the flavor of the pork I think. You can use less or more cayenne of course. It's not going to make it spicy really because we're talking about 7 or so pounds of meat per butt.
