\"hickory<\/a><\/p>\n

Hickory<\/a> Smoked Pulled Pork Butts need not ruin your beauty sleep.\u00a0 No need to use the old fashioned low-and-slow method and pull an all nighter tending to your Pork Butts when you can use my Turbo method which allows you to Smoke, Roast, FTC, and Pull the Pork in a 10-12 hour time frame rather than 18-24 hours!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Swift<\/a><\/p>\n

With the rising costs of everything it behooves one to maximize their pellets.\u00a0 I find the quality of Costco meats to be exceptional and their Swift Premium Boneless Pork Shoulder Butts have never failed me.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Rubbed<\/a><\/p>\n

I really enjoy the flavor profiles provided by the bark and so prefer to trim the fat cap.\u00a0 Contrary to public belief the fat cap does not baste the Pork Butt but rather prevents bark formation.\u00a0 These are 7-7\u00bd lb pork butts.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Pork<\/a><\/p>\n

Rub the boneless pork butts with Extra Virgin Olive Oil<\/a> and a liberal amount of your favorite Pork rub.\u00a0 I find that Plowboys BBQ Bovine Bold provide scrumptious results.\u00a0 Wrap the pork butts in plastic and fridge overnight.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Pork<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Smoked<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Preheat the MAK 2 Star<\/a> Wood Pellet BBQ Smoker-Grill to 225\u00baF using Pacific Pellet Gourmet BBQ Hickory<\/a> Wood Pellets.\u00a0 Hickory<\/a> Smoke the Pork Butts for 3 hours before increasing the BBQ pit temperature to 350\u00baF until the internal temperature<\/a> of the pork butts reach 160\u00baF.\u00a0 At this point the pork butts are either in the middle of the stall that will always happen or have gone past the stall.\u00a0 As you can see, bark formation is exceptional.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Smoked<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"Foiled<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"FTC<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Double wrap the boneless pork butts with heavy duty foil keeping the meat probes in the butts.\u00a0 Return the pork to the MAK 2 Star<\/a> running at 350\u00baF with Pacific Pellet Gourmet BBQ Hickory<\/a> Wood Pellets until the internal temperature<\/a> of the pork butts reach 205\u00baF.\u00a0 Foil (already double foiled), wrap in a Towel, and place in a Cooler (FTC) the pork butts for 3-4 hours before pulling them.\u00a0 After a 3-4 FTC the pork butts will still be extremely hot!\u00a0 Note the use of food grade, dishwasher safe, heat resistant to 600\u00baF Silicone Cooking Bands<\/a> to hold the boneless butts together.\u00a0 For extra flavor mix the juices from the butts with the pulled pork.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
