butt pics

These were of the smithfield brand. rubbed with black pepper, seasoning salt, garlic salt, and mccormics bbq seasoning. sprayed with coke every hour. not on a cookshack, but a custom built 8 footer. will hold 16 butts on each side. no thermometer used. i pull 'em when i like 'em. usually slightly under the norm, as i will be 'chipping' and reheating as required.
smoked on apple, mesquite, and hickory for about ten hours.
very tender, awesome taste. love the color profile. no black bark on these as they are for commercial use and barking tends to reduce yeild. yum yum! notice the big birds on the smoker. same rub, sprite instead of coke for spray.
