I'm confused... are you curing a butt to make bacon or just putting a rub on it to make pulled pork ?

[Gman]

pulled pork ?

[Gman]

I put a Rub for pulled pork and was supose  to smoke it for sat. but have to wait now for monday dinner to eat it.

[FLBentRider]

It should be fine.

I've had to do that when something came up.


As long as the meat does not have a foul odor, smoke on!

Thanks for being online right now .

I have a 8 lb butt, time to smoke it, I would guess 18 hrs at 195* ?? ( I haven't smoked sinced last year)

Back to the drawing board ( I wonder if this is like ridding a Bike , never forget yeah right.....)

For just one butt that mght be a little long.

I smoke then cook to 195-200F IT.

you are right....For just one butt that mght be a little long...... last butt I smoked were 4  8 lbs each

How long would you guess at 195'  for a single 8 lb piece??
