A Boston Butt Question

Former Member

Getting ready for my first Butt. In the prior postings about ribs, the concept basically changed from rubbing them and storing overnite, to just an hour or two before cooking. Has this approach changed for Butt's also, or do you still rub and refrigerate for 12-24 hours before cooking?

Thanks for any guidance.

I usually rub mustard on first followed by the rub about 12 hours before I put it in my 008.

Thanks. I followed the advice on my first ribs and they came out great. With a little luck from the "Q" gods and help from you guys, the rest of the things I smoke will also come out well.

If we can get heavy rub on a few hrs ahead,thats nice.

If I can't,try 30 mins.

Never needed mustard to make rub stick,but guess its ok,if you like to try it.
