Title: 2nd Bradley Smoke......Boston Butt......Pics Inside
Post by: JTM on December 23, 2010, 05:47:28 PM
For the first smoke in my new Bradley I did a whole chicken, which turned out great.  Yesterday, I smoked an 8lb butt.  I used a dry rub of paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic salt, and sugar.  I smoked it with hickory for 4 hours and left it in the Bradley a total of 13 hours at approximately 225F.  I was looking for an IT of 195F but ended up pulling it out at 199F.  Other than refilling the water bowl about 8 hours in, I did absolutely nothing to the meat or the Bradley during the smoke.  For the entire cook the meat was placed fat side down.  After cooking, I FTCed for about 6 hours.  Pic 3 happened by simply pressing down on the butt with both hands, nothing more.  Absolutely magical  ;D
