Smoked Boston Butt

Takes about 8 to 10 hours, but its the best pulled pork you’ll ever eat.

Start things off by getting a nice bone-in Boston Butt. You can get a nice butt at Sams club. (they come in a 2 pack)

Rub the entire butt with some TCATS Rub (recipe on this site) and let it sit overnight covered in foil.

Take out the butt in the morning and let it set out for about 30 minutes or so, to get to room temperature.

Start your smoker and get it going… ideally you want to keep your smoker between 225° and 250° the entire cooking process.

Put your butt into the smoker and let er rip, maintaining the temperatures outlined above.

After the internal temperature hits about 160° you will experience a “stall.” The temperature may stay here for a while, this is normal. Continue to let the butt cook until you reach about 195°.

Take it off the smoker, wrap it in foil, and then wrap it in a towel. Place it inside a cooler for at least an hour before pulling.
