Well guys, Thanks for all the great tips and discussion last week about my butt. I must say that (so far) an injected butt is the way to go.I thought to begin with that injecting maybe a little over the top but after some encouragement and some scrutiny I decided to turn the other cheek. Not only did I inject my butt but I also rubbed it down. Here's how it went down. Before I ever took it out of the vacuum packaging I inject my butt with an ample amount of mildvinegar and peppers based sauce. Once I unwrapped it and after I got done slathering my butt with mustard (thanks for the tip Cheez) I then rubbed it down with some Blues Hog dry rub. I put it back in frig for 24 hours. About 11 pm the next evening I lit a batch of lump charcoal and in 30 minutes the smoker was hot. I put my butt on, and then went to bed. The next morning it was good to go. I took my butt off and wrapped it with double ply foil, and rest my butt on the counter for an hour or so. At 11 am lunch was served.
My butt was a huge success. I got complements on it all day, some saying it was the best butt they'd ever put on their lips. I had a large butt to start with so I was left with about 5lbs to munch on this week.
I need to find a better source for charcoal though. The Royal Oak lump wasn’t of the best quality but it was all I could find locally.
