3.70# butt - 11 hours, still not to temp.....

A couple years ago,I had a small boneless butt that not only stayed in the plateau-but went backwards.

Its done when its done.

Did you measure its temperature when you took it out of the toaster oven? Maybe you had some sort of thermodynamic black hole on your hands...

No, I didnt. And after several beers that day, I didn't much care anymore. I did find it to be a good cooking experience, and one I plan to duplicate. It came out excellent. It was more moist than the previous butt's I've done. I also think that it was a superior cut of meat, and not bad at $1.49 a pound. A $5.00 piece of meat made 6-7 unbelieveable sandwiches. This pork went on thinly sliced toasted whole wheat, some iceberg lettuce, and a heap of carmelized maui onions. Weird combo I know, but, Hey! this is LA!
And it was good............

To each his own, but man, what are you doing? BBQ sammich on wheat bread with lettuce and onions? I hope you can live with yourself now.
