    Have a 2.4# pork butt, how long to turn it into pulled pork on a WSM?

    Found part of a pork shoulder (boneless) in the freezer, trying to find time to smoke it on a WSM. Any tips on how long it might take?

    Dang, I'm glad the dog in the avatar turned out to be a tummy rub loving doggie.

    12 hrs total from putting it on the grate to shredding it. Here's my system that will work should it interest you.

    Cook at 225-250. Let it power through the stall, might take 7 or 8 hrs, but once it gets past the stall and to about 170 or 180, wrap it tightly in double layer of foil. Let it go another 1.5-3hrs (usually ~2) until it gets up to 200-205. Then "faux cambro" hold it for 2 more hours. 12 total, 10 hrs cook + 2 hrs hold.

    This is my system and works like clockwork. There are several other ways to get this done with varying timing and procedure.

      +1 on what Huskee said. I typically run about the same time he is talking give or take a little on the cook time...

      that being said 2.4 lb seems rather small.

        On second thought with a butt that small you'll likely be able to shave an hour or two off all that. The times I ballparked are more for the thickness of 4-5lbers.
