I did a butt for New Years eve Party - Extreme Smoke for 14.5 Hours to internal temp 150, then double foil wrapped and put back on smoker at 235 until internal temp reached 195. Super delicious. Added red chili powder from NM to spice rub, excellent.

That certainly looks like some nice bark! I never thought about going that long in extreme; maybe I should play with that. Happy New Year!
 
Going to try this tonight. Putting it on about 10pm... for an afternoon going back to work/school.. feast for family. Have a huge Butt from Costco. Will try the extreme (set at 200?). And then wrap and move temp up.

Do you put probes through foil? Also - how long did you rest it? On one of the RecTec videos they rest theirs for a couple of hours in a foil / moving blanket.

Also - any apple juice in foil or other spritz?

thanks...
 
Once I place the probes I leave them, and wrap them inside the foil. I inject with my seasoning and apple cider vinegar or apple juice. Then I put apple juice in Foil. I do not spritz, But probably should....
