I'm cooking butts on Thursday night for Friday pickup but I also have some people who want to pick theirs up on Monday. Will a cooked butt be good until Monday in a refrigerator if I wrap it in foil and plastic wrap?

Folks talk about holding pork three days,maybe four.
Personal consumption,lots go another day.
Sounds like you're good to go.

Good for a week. Warm slow in oven for 3-4 hours at 160-180, then pull. It will be like fresh.

Thank you, You can never be too safe with food....
My wife & I had some the other nite that had been vacumn sealed and frozen for over 4 months. It was delicious.

We sell pork that we've pulled and frozen in small bags. If I tell them to keep it frozen and use it within 3 months, that sounds pretty safe. Most of them are out within a week. They really enjoy having a dinner within easy reach.
When I have frozen left over that I don't sell, I use it for Brunswick stew, freeze the stew in a bag that fits inside a 1/2 pan. I can put it frozen in the pan to warm, or thaw it first. I usually use the stew within a month of freezing.
