Forecast said we'd get above 15 on Sat, so I picked up a 4 lb boneless butt and smoked it up.
Lesson learned - remove the netting that holds the boneless butt together BEFORE it goes in the smoker. :(
As the butt cooks, the the netting pulls into the meat, then barks over, making it difficult to remove.
6 hickory pucks made the smoke, but we decided we like apple on pork a lot more.  I'll save the hickory for a brisket. 
Added some smoked cheese from 6 Feb (needs to go back in the fridge for a few more weeks--still bitter), and some garlic bread--sorry, wife picked that up at the store. 
Good eats.

Nothing wrong with that meal my friend.

Pulled pork on a slice of garlic bread??

Hmmm...   Sounds good to me!

Looks good to me! Don't worry about the netting...just tell your guests that it is just built-in floss to clean your teeth at the end of the meal :D

Looks like the bark held up to the takin the net off fight.  ;D

Nice color too.

Made the same error on the last butt I did
Sure was fun though...picking all the bits and pieces off the string
and sampling them.
I like the free floss idea

Thanks for the comments guys.

OU, the net is still on in the photo--its fresh out of the OBS.  It didn't look pretty after the net fight.  New meaning for "pulled pork". 

squirtthecat, never thought of that either!  I like it as a side for the butt and baked beans.
