Got this thing coated with mustard and the rub on last night threw it in the fridge and hit it with another layer of rub on right before I fired the smoker up at 5am and threw this 9.5 lb pork butt on at 6. It's gonna be a long time til 6 tonight!

Wow, that looks good 106. What are you having with it?
 
There's no way you guys would see me waking up at 5AM to cook food!. I had to get up at 7 today to head into work and even that wasn't fun... I usually work 3PM-11PM.
 
So I pulled it off the grill and here are the pics. It was 202° internal temps and took right at 11 hours to get to temp. I posted a picture of where the thermo probe was at by the butt and I tested it in boiling water after the cook and it is pretty accurate 209 in boiling water. The butt is wrapped in foil/towel and in the cooler for an hour. The sauce is cooking right now and I threw the beans on the Kamado to cook.

I need smellivison. It looks awesome. Does the Kamado have a gasket on the lid for a good seal? Nice job. I betcha that will pull apart nicely.
 
Certified, my Dad used to do a lot of cooking in the Kamodo. We LOVED it, best food ever. Gotta go, salivating all over the keyboard...
 
Oh wow that looks amazing
 
[Hearth.com] Dinner For Tonight (Smoked Pork)

Gotta take some pics of butts and chickens coming out of the redneck smoker sometime. Heated the house for 21 years so I can't tell ya what the smoker cost. But 14 hours and the butts are melt in your mouth. Four butts and six chickens in aluminum broiler pans in the drawers are heaven on a plate later.
 
Hopefully not all at once! Do you freeze them afterward?
 
Certified,
You got the cooler post cooking thing down.
A friend taught me that 10yrs ago, he cooked on a big smoker. He said ribs, 3-4hrs on smoker remove and throw straight into a cooler, the residual heat will cook them through and fall off the bone moist.

A side note, I've been sifting my coals from my ash can and using it on my repurposed gas grill converted to carcoal grill, they seem to burn much cooler than regular charcoal keeping consistent 200-225F temps for ~6hrs. Slow cooked some chicken legs ~2hrs last night and they were tender and tasty good with the help from a few hickory limbs laying near by.

I am gonna have to move the 650 pound beast. Originally it was hidden behind the wood stacks. Now that I built the wood shed it is sitting out in open view.

Ah, let it there. I like it as it sits! I can almost smell that food when you first open that door up after a 10 hr cook!!!! Finally, a legitimately good use for the ol' smoke dragon!

.It was AWESOME (broken image removed)(broken image removed)!!!! It was so tender and juicy that it just about fell apart when you poked it with a fork. The bark on the outside was thick and you could see a nice smoke ring! My wife said she doesn't care to get pulled pork at a restaurant and my sister and her husband decided they think we should cook this for every holiday meal from now on....... Here is the only shot I have of it right as it was getting pulled. Next time I will do more so I can freeze some for later use in dishes.
