Welcome to the forum B-Con!  Looks like you hit the ground running!  Hope the butt turned out how you wanted.  A Butt is a good place to start on the Bradley Road of Smoking Nirvana.  Warning there is not cure.  Plenty of great folks here with a deep well of experience, so feel free to jump in to either ask questions or teach us new and better ways!  And there are a few folks on here that don't read - they need pics!  They tend to have moist noses and furry tails and do appreciate good pics to drool over!  ;D

Let us know how the butt turns out, sounds like it will be dry and tough with that plan of yours. This aint no pot roast.

No offense but I have never seen or herd of cooking a butt that way, maybe a pot roast but not a butt.

4 hr smoke, cabnet temp at 220 to 230 F, vent half way open or more, internal temp of 180 to 200 F go by temp not time you could figure about 2 hr per lb to start checking things. Rember the key is "slow and low"
