Pork Butt November 2025

11.19 lbs pork butt from the commissary, $2.02 per pound. I’ll use 2.75 Tbsp salt and 1.25 cups Memphis dust. Smoking it at 225℉ until it hits about 203℉.

6 Nov, 2310: meat is on the smoker.

7 Nov, 1330: meat is at 170℉. I’m turning the smoker up to 275℉.

1750: 201℉ - I’ll take it off soon.

1810: 203℉, perfect!

Pork butt was fantastic. Perhaps a little fattier than usual, but seems delicious.
