I was going to smoke a bonless butt roast on thurs...but due to a mess of
things conspiring to stop me including 3 inches of blowing snow. I decided
to smoke today instead. I trudged thru the mid calf high snow and preped
the smoker(more like shoveled it out of the drift). I got the temp fairly
constant at 250F threw in a mess of hickory chips and put in the roast
around 9:30AM this morning. I've checked on it once so far and things look
promising. Around 11:45 I'll put in more hickory chips and probably mist
the roast with a apple & rum mop. The orangy bbq sauce I made yesterday
will work well with it as I tried it out on some spareribs I braised
yesterday for supper. I'm guessing around 4PM I will be the proud owner of
some smoked pork.
