I add a little arrow root to thicken it up a little.
FLB what do you mean by Arrow Root. The only thing I know of is the baby cookies?
I like to walk threw life on the path of least resistance. But sometimes the path needs a good kick in the ass.

Q, arrowroot is a thickening agent. Kind of like cornstarch or flour.

Take the butt and rub it down with the Mr. Brown then slather on some CYM (cheep yellow mustard) then another dose of Mr. Brown this time dont rub it in just cover the CYM with the rub. I dont do the wrap and rest overnight thing, I fire up the smoker after the second coating of rub has been put on. That will allow the butt to come to room temp wile the smoker is coming up to temp. I heat my smoker to 250 F before I put the butt in. After the butt is in watch the temp, when the temp gets close to 220 F turn the heat down in the smoker to 220 F

I like Pecan (a mild version of hickory) smoke for 4 hr, dump the drip pan and refill with HOT water then get ready for a long wait. I do my long cooks over night. Dont freak out when the temp of the butt stalls out around 160 F thats when the magic happens and it can stay there for up 6 hr before the IT (internal temp) starts to rise again. Pull out of the smoker when the IT hits
180 F then TFC (towel foil cooler) for a couple hr. The FTC will allow the butt to finish cooking to 185 F and allow the juices to re constatute in the meat.

After the FTC put the butt in a lasagna pan and pull, keeping all the butt in one pan will allow the bark and juices to be evenly mixed together.

Note: When doing the overnight thing I put a foil roasting pan with 2 warm cans of beer in it on the rack below the rack the butt is on. I do this when the smoke is done and when changing the drip pan. This will catch the drippings and when the butt is doing the FTC thing put the pan of drippings in the fridge to let the fat become solid then discard the fat and you have some killer pork drippings. You can put the drippings back in with the butt when you pull if you want or save for when you reheat the butt or use it to make some of the best gravy you ever had.

Wrap in Foil, Wrap that in an old Towel, and put into a Cooler (no ice)

This will rest it and keep it warm for hours if needed.

OU,
How do you like the old Yellow Sauce?
Bacon is the Crack Cocaine of the Food World.

Be careful about calling yourself and EXPERT! An ex is a has-been, and a spurt is a drip under pressure!

I like Butts alittle warmer (190 to 195) IT

Take several readings in different areas when you think you are ready to take it out of the smoker.

Man, you guys have me really keyed up to try a pork butt.  Soon as I see some at a descent price, I'm going for it.

Getting a pork butt lathered up for an overnight marinade.  Since I found it at $.99/lb on the way home tonight.  (OU/Electricshaman: Hyvee at Shadow Lake, Papillion had it, I didn't buy them all... ;D)  I will probably have it going by 9 p.m. tomorrow night.
