Easy Smoked Pork Butt | Pulled Pork | Camp Chef Woodwind 

Honestly don’t remember how long this one took. Usually when I do pork butts it falls around 1-2 hours per pound. each butt acts differently, I’ve had some on one end of the spectrum and some on the other. I usually plan for about 1.5 hours per pound and give myself some wiggle room when planning for eatin time as the pork can rest for awhile without detriment.

@@TheChowHall Thanks for the quick response. My 3.5 pound bone in took 9 hours yesterday. I was the first thing I cooked on my new Camp Chef Woodwind 24. Other than running out of liquid at the end, it was amazing.

Do you find that you get a better result lifting the butt like that? I was considering doing that tomorrow. Seems like a good idea on something like the camp chef with the heat source right below. Looked good! Thanks

@@SladeOb Sorry for the very late reply. I like to contain the juices /fat / etc. on a cook when I can (helps cut down on how dirty the smoker can get and whatnot) - So I'll often use a pan / disposable or otherwise. I would think depending on the pan, smoke isn't going to get to wherever the meat is resting, so I'll try to raise it. Have I done it often to know if it makes a real difference? No. But I would think more airflow is never a bad thing. Doing it entirely in a pan probably also prevents bark from forming where it rests, since depending on the amount of juice / fat / etc loss that meat probably ends up braising a bit.
