    At 225 F mine took 15 for one and 16 for the other two. They were about 6.5 pounds each. so that sounds reasonable.

    One came off at 15 hours. The other three came off at 16 hours and 30 minutes. Now THAT is low and slow.

    I like it when it is time to take them off. Even if they are going to be wrapped up for a couple hours....

    (6 AM)
    Twelve hours of cooking and still stalled. Fortunately I dont have to pull them for another 3 hours. I will look hard after another 2 hours and may crank the temps a bit. They are going to sit in the "fc" for 2.5 hours before shredding so I imagine they will soften up a bit further there anyway. Ripping off a corner bit says they certainly aren't ready now. But my house smells ready as the wind has blown roasted pig fumes in.

    (update at 7:15 AM)

    thirteen hours and the temps are increasing again...finally. but they are still in the 180 range with two hours left to pull them. Yoder holds 225 but I am considering bumping it up.

    (update at 8 AM) Well, I planned for 14 hours and they aren't done so I will bump the Yoder to 250F. The good news is I can go another hour and a half and there is a 2.5 hour rest in the faux cambro ahead. I swapped the sides as the right side was a little hotter. They sort of look like this now.

    Three hours and thirty minutes. Internal up to 150 so I am backing it down to 210 (going to sleep after almost all of my teams lost today, but yea for Georgia Tech!) They smell AWESOME.

    That is a cooked piece of bacon for scale.

    I also purchased 2 Boston Butts at Costco except I thought they were bone in. Got home and the butcher really had to hack away at those butts to get the bones out. There was no way I was going to be able to hang them on my PBC. I coated them with rub, rolled them up, and tied the mess together with string. Then cooked them in the PBC on the grate. That is the beauty of the PBC, being able to hang the big pieces of meat while still being able to cook smaller cuts on the grate. They came out with a wonderful flavor as is the norm on the PBC. Won't buy bone out again, at least not intentionally.

    I lost track of time. I am putting them in SATURDAY night so this is all helpful. These butts are about 6-7 pounds each but they need a LOT of trussing. "The Burn" and I bought more or less the same but I bought two of those packages --- both a touch over 13 lbs. I used a little more string but I plan on leaving them overnight... put them in around 8 pm and expect them to be done by 8-10 am. My Yoder holds 225 like a champ... I am going to 203 which I assume you didn't reach in a 200F oven! But I am feeling pretty good seeing your results. Pics to follow.
