        @Jett129 Thank you and great reference!  So I took the chicken off at 163 and let it set for 15-20 minutes, but the temp definitely went higher as it set.

        What temp do you pull it off it you don't want to overcook it?

          I smoke my chicken.  I sear it first and then smoke for 75 minutes. I don’t even temp check anymore,as it’s so consistently delicious. I do 2 zone cooking,and I have a drip pan underneath with bourbon and water. I cook on a PK360

                  Roast #2 has stalled:  #1 is still rising.  When I added the picture above, they were sprayed with apple juice.  Thank you @Jett129

                    Don’t thank me,it wasn’t my idea. I usually do it 50/50 water and apple juice.

                      Forgot to cut the apple juice.  Now both of them are in the stall…

                        Did two smaller butts to maximize bark ratio.


                        Pulled pork and fixins leftover hash the next morning.

                        Think it, be it.

                            A 4 hour stall! At any point did you consider wrapping?

                                I am using a drip pan with water and I wonder if I have too much in it (cooling effect?)?  They look really nice and the bark looks awesome and I think they will be done within the hour.  Temps coming up quickly now and  will pull them off at 200 degrees.

                                  What the hell did I do wrong?  Grill temp and the surface is 220-250.  Indirect set up with a drip tray filled with water.  Two butts on the grill almost touching but some space (~1-2 inches).

                                  Sprayed 3 times throughout with apple spray.

                                  This is taking forever…currently 13 hours.  Butts are 4.5-6 pounds.

                                  😢

                                    I don’t think you did anything wrong. Might be the fact that you had 2 Butts in there. I don’t know if it’s the angle of the pictures but the look like they would weigh more than about 5lbs,in other words they look pretty big. I find pork to be the most forgiving of all meats on that it’s pretty hard to mess up,and believe me I’ve tried. I tend to cook between 250-275 and will refuel during the stall,and it will still take 2 hours. An 8lb bone in butt once took me 12 hours and I ended up wrapping it and putting it in the oven. I use a drip pan with cold water and bourbon,but I feel that it heats up pretty quick which would negate any cooling effect. Like Aaron Franklin says …”It takes as long as it’s gonna take”

                                        It’s been a long day:  Roast 1 is done and 2 should be coming off in about 20 minutes.
