Hi Guys,
I did an overnight cook last night. It's a 5 lb pork butt. At 5am, the meat was in the 170s. When I woke again at 8, both the meat and the pit were in the low 150s. I've added new coals and the meat is back up to 169 now. I'm imagining I'm okeay since it didn't get down below 140, but when I touched the bark, it didn't feel particularly warm, so thought I'd ask some more experienced smokers.
Thanks ahead!
