OK, the butt is slathered with cheap yellow musturd and covered with a
mixture of mostly Bad Byron's Butt Rub and a bit of my own mix. Do I cook it fat cap up, down or does it even matter? I assume up. Thanks in advance for the sure to come advise. -- ---------------------------------------------------- This mailbox protected from junk email by Matador from MailFrontier, Inc. http://info.mailfrontier.com |

I assume up. Thanks in advance for the sure to come advise. Keep the fat between the meat and the heat. IOW, if you are cooking direct, fat down. If indirect, fat up. It will also depend on what *type* of cooker you are using. BOB this information was learned form the posts of the late and BBQ Great, Cuchulain Libby, aka "Hound" |

If you feel that you *must* keep the heat deflector, cook fat up (heat will be radiating from the dome) and end up with gereat pork, but less of the crust to mix in with the pulled pork. BOB |
