Butt on the 1150

[Don]

Put my first butt on the 1150 at 6:30 today. Lets see if this smoker is worth it's salt. Need to see how this smoker does for longer smokes. I have a brisket planned for next week. Tried loading the Smoke IT app and it sucks miserably, lets hope the smoker doesn't too.

Forgot my sauce !

Well I'm impressed. I have smoked a lot of butts in my time, but I have never had one so juicy. I added no liquid to this butt not even spritzed with anything.

Impressive results! How long did you smoke and how long did you use the crutch? I smoked a butt on my 820 PS for 18 hours. It was wrapped for the last 6.

The butt cooked from 6:30 am, wrapped at 1:50 in the afternoon at 160° and came off at 185° at a little after 4 maybe 4:15 p.m. I wrapped it in a towel for 1 hour and pulled about 5:30 for dinner.

Plenty of time to drink beer! I started mine at 6:00 pm so pulled an all-nighter because I did spritz mine once an hour. I got beyond the stall to about 170 before wrapping mine. I like your use of the foil pan and cooling, er, I mean, grilling rack. Much less clean up.

I have been doing this with things that have a high fat content. It helps with clean-up lots.
