Butts and Beans

Thanks guys! From your comments it would seem that you don't think adding the beans to the cooker will slow the cook. I have a pretty good idea on how long it would take without the beans, was just curious if having the beans in the cooker would add time to the cook.

OK, so my buddy reported back. His first cook in his electric was roughly a 7-8lber, one chunk, cooked at 230. He said it took around 24hrs to hit 203 unwrapped. Beans shouldn't affect this, they'll be done wayyy sooner. FWIW.

I dont think it takes much longer. I hve a materbuilt electric and smoked many butts in it, but always wrapped them at the stall. Make sure you add a bottle of beer to them, especially if there is a lot of sugar in the bean dish.

I don't know how much longer it will take. I would suggest if you're doing it for dinner that you start her early. I would also suggest chop it in 2 and leave plenty of space between the two halves if possible. Check the beans regularly to make sure they're not drying out. It will be a long cook, especially so if you cook all 9lbs intact.
A buddy of mine has en electric and his first cook was a pork butt, so I messaged him to see if he remembers how long things took. I'm sure other electric users will chime in shortly with their advice...

Butts and Beans
I'm going to smoke a 9 lb Wamart butt this weekend and am planning on cooking a gallon of beans under the butt to collect all dem juicy drippings (Sorry about the Pavlovian drool). Anybody have a ballpark figure on how many hours longer it's gonna take since I have a pan of beans in there. I'm using my electric (cookshack smoke) to do the job.Tags: None
