Hi I'm Bill. After some exhaustive research I pulled the trigger on the #2 and couldn't be happier. I've only had it about 2 weeks and I've done a fatty, whole chicken, whole turkey, meatloaf, Canadian bacon, salmon, and I just started my first Kielbasa this morning.
I've looked through the forum and I see there is a wide range for time on a pork butt (1-2 hours/lb?). I'm all for starting early, but how long to plan for a 12lb pork butt? 12 or 24 hours seems like an extremely wide range. Has anyone nailed down a better time frame or have a plan for this? Hoping to use the Lazy-Q brining method for this one and make pulled pork.
Grateful to have found this resource!
