Yes, beautiful as long as you do not bother to eat it. My third attempt using this approach. ZERO smoke on the pork, but BEAUTIFUL bark. U-tub strips off these comments as they are not loving . Temp of 275 decomposes the smoke leaving nothing left. Must smoke at about 180F for about 4 hours. Then there is SOMETHING surviving. Not much however. I would bet this is removed in a day or so. Yoder explains the dynamics of smoking on an offset smoker. Also accurate scenarios for cooking on a pellet grill. Smoker stick is needed to get ANY smoke to the meat. This video gives you a solid B-minus BBQ as a result. Bark exquisite, taste ho-hum.

I saw no bark that I am used to seeing with a pork rub. Butt had a different look. I may try this and see, but currently I prefer a Lamberts rub on my pork butts.

I got a Pit Boss Pellet Grill/Smoker and I followed all the steps on your video and let me tell you that the pork butt turn out... AMAZING!!!! And this is the first time that I smoked meat, never done it before.

Love my pit boss! I learned how to smoke KZread videos and Diners Drive in and Dives

I have never smoked a large pork butt before, but I followed your directions and want to say I was incredibly happy with the results. Thank you for the great video.

I have smoked a mountain of pork butts, and this video is a great basic primer for getting fantastic results. There are a dozen things you can try and an endless variety of rubs, etc. But this will work for you if you have never smoked meat. Guaranteed. Good video.

This was so informative I really appreciate the explanation as to why you are taking each step. I'll be starting my pork butt in the morning tomorrow and I'm definitely using this video as my recipe and guideline. Excellent video 👍🏼

Awesome video David! Thank you for being so detailed as you walked through the steps. I just bought my first smoker and will take your advice and keep it simple to start.

David! Thank you so much doing this video. You covered all the topics perfectly. You are a god send. I followed all the steps and ended up with a perfect pulled pork. You taught me so much. You’re a terrific man and I owe you a debt of gratitude. Merry Christmas!

Perhaps the best pellet smoker video I have watched. Great, simple, complete. Total confidence builder !

I watched your video several times and made notes as I went. I've smoked brisket for years and my grand daughter always asks for one on her birthday, but I think we may have a new winner here ! My wife is the pickiest eater I've ever known and even she exclaimed how good the pork butt was ! Excellent meal this evening and looks like there will be several more ! Thank you!!!

Great video, very thorough. I will definitely smoke one. Looks super easy. Thanks so much!

Great video - I just nailed my first smoked pork butt today after following your walkthrough. MUCH appreciated!

David, this is a great video and I really appreciate your taking the time to do it. I followed most of the steps you laid out and we had a great meal with plenty of leftovers. I used the salt & pepper combination you suggested and it worked great. The only things I did differently was to use a throwaway pan and wrapped the butt in it. It kept the juices and made it extremely tender. Also, I have a Trail Embers vertical smoker using charcoal to cook it. We rested it for 2 hours loved every bite.

Great video, TY

Good video, thanks.

I love doing the butter and brown sugar honey wrap halfway through. Absolutely incredible

Thank you, David. I just pulled my second one off the smoker and put it in the cooler to rest. The last one turned out great and I can’t wait to pull this one! Cheers.

Thanks, David. The pork turned out great . Excellent video.

Great tutorial. Took the mystery out of the process!

Super nice guy. Great presentation. Thx.

I'm cooking one tomorrow on my new Treager 1300. Looking forward to BBQ success!

followed your directions today....one of the most tender, juiciest pork butts I have ever had....Thanks!

Cooking a pork butt would be a great way to try before I attempt a prime rib. Thanks for the video, it was great!

Awesome video..I used only salt and pepper and it was great..thanks for your experience

Awesome video!!

I followed the instructions and it was perfect.

Thank you for this video

Great video. It will guide anyone who hasn't smoked a butt before. I am not a pitmaster as you are. I have been smoking meat for over 20yrs. I love to make BBQ. I am smoking one for Christmas to take to my wife's cousin's house. They always enjoy it. Merry Christmas and keep smoking.

Don't let anyone tell you that you can't cook good food with a gas grill and a smoke box. Your biggest problem is going to be temp accuracy, as your grill's built in thermometer if it has one is garbage. If you have an ambient probe like in this video, you can produce phenomenal que on a budget without buying a dedicated smoker and it's going to be 75% as good as a dedicated pellet grill. Anyone who says otherwise is an elitist and hater.

@TheJstewart2010

+@@user-nm8dd1vz8n I definitely agree that it certainly can be done on a gas grill and smoke box. That said, shortly after doing my first pork butt, I bought a second-hand pellet grill. It needed some repairs, but they're very simple mechanically and the ignitor was easy to replace. It's so much nicer not to have to go out every 20 minutes and change out the wood chips in the smoke box. I only paid a total of $135 for my used pellet grill and new ignitor, and it's definitely worth it for the convenience. Without that first success with the gas grill under my belt, though, I wouldn't have wanted to invest the money in a pellet grill.

Great video. I'm already experienced and actually judge bbq on the Memphis in May circuit. I thought you did a great job explaining. When I throw mine in a cooler, I lay some towels over the wrapped pork butts and if I have the time, I'll let them rest up to 8 hours. At that point, they are still quite hot when pulling with your hands. The long rest time really helps for timing your dinner so you don't have to be exact. 😋👍

Going to be doing my first pork butt this summer. Good video. Thank you.

I'm letting my first pork butt rest as I write this. I followed your video and I'm so glad that I did. Thanks for not over powering your voice with cheesy background music. I look forward to more of your videos.

Excellent video! I've been cooking butts for about 2 years and every step I've learned was covered very well. The question I have is about wrapping. I've been told to use butcher paper to wrap (amd i have), but I was wondering what the difference was using foil vs butcher paper? Is there a benefit? If there is, what would it be? Thanks. Again, it is an excellent video for anyone from beginners to those of us who need a refresher. 🙂

Thanks for the awesome video Dave. I'm a long time griller but very new to smoking and pellet grills, your videos are very informitive and easy to follow. Just waiting for a good sale on bone-in pork butt to try your method, I might however add a bit of chipotle chilli powder to the mix. Thanks again, have a great summer, it's gonna be a good one.

Every now and then i'll take my bbq meats and stick them in the oven after the wrap, so that's a great technique since they won't take on any more smoke flavor. In most cases, i'll usually just let it run on the pit since it's already fired up, but both methods work great!

Used this video yesterday for my first pork butt smoking. Turned out absolutely amazing. I was so happy the bone slide right out. It was a cold day here in MD had trouble keeping 250 on my Basspro electric smoker. Worked through though. Meat thermometers were a couple of degrees off. Lol. I pulled it at 203 and only let it set for about 30mintues. So tender ,juicy and flavorful!!! Best pulled pork we have had in a long time. Put it in at 9am and we ate at 6pm!!! Ty for video

Spanish people like to make the skin/Fat cap crispy. It tastes incredible. Is there a way of making a crispy skin on a pork shoulder on a pellet grill?

I use a camp chef pellet smoker and have one resting right now. After letting it rest I will use bear claws to shred it. Tomorrow I’ll cut my slaw. Your expiation was spot on. I just use a different rub. My total cook time was 9 hr @250degrees for a 8.5lb butt.
