Cooking 2 butts at once

I’ve had similar cook time issues with my Cook Shack at 225. Bump it up!!
-
Its a Masterbuilt 40" Bluetooth electric smoker. I have a friend who has one and I loved it. I normally use a Large propane smoker but venturing into something different. I will bump temp up to 225 and put brisket on other smoker so the new one wont be overloaded.

That's weird. We've had multiple people on the main site report back with faster than expected cooks due to the ultra-humid environment.

I don't know, my Masterbilt 30" used to go for 20 hrs routinely on a butt. That last 10 degrees or so would have me like a kid waking up too early on Christmas morning. Maybe something to do with holding so much moisture in there, I don't know. But I would definitely bump that temperature up quite a bit.

I've heard that electrics tend to cook much faster. Might want to keep that mind.

Agreed, jfmorris UncleFester ...
I missed th 215° thing, while tryin to whip through today's posts...
I utilize th "UncleFester Zone", or often higher, temp wise!
Even if it creeps summat higher than 275°, no worries:
They are very forgiving.
Cookin fer an 'event' on an unknown cooker, I'd leave my dang self some wiggle room.

Absolutely!!! Kick the temp up to 250-275! Will still take plenty long time and won’t hurt the cook at all! Good luck!
-
Yeah I'd second the temperature consensus, I have zero issues whatsoever cooking butts in the 250-275 range, which saves a couple hours of cook time

I would also up the temperature to 225 or so, not 215. That will save a little time. Butts are good anywhere from 225 to 275 in my experience. They are very forgiving.

Reckon I'd allow more time, but would also like to know what kinda 'new lectric smoker' yer talkin bout?
It'll help others to give ya some expert experience!
I'm jus here fer entertainment, until they arrive

Cooking 2 butts at once
Cooking 2 pork butts and a brisket tomorrow night for a party here Saturday. My propane smoker takes about 16 hours at 215 for that. I am cooking these on a new electric smoker. So suggestions or tips appreciated.Tags: None
