I didn't forget about this post, Lew. I tried it. Here are my results–
• 10:00 … Into Masterbuilt Gravity smoker
• Masterbuilt set at 275°. (It ran at 276-278°, verified by Fireboard.)
• 3:00 … IT hit 160°, wrapped in 3-beer bath.
• 3:30 … Added charcoal.
• 5:45 … Done (≈8 hours).
Pretty darn good and certainly easy. Thanks for posting it.
I think that my next butt (soon) will be a ≈16-hour, overnight and rest butt on the MAK 2-Star. I may like it slightly better but it's hard to tell.
