A pork butt is probably one of the easiest things to cook when you are just starting out.
Coat the meat with yellow mustard liberally, rub on any pork rub, I like Weber's Kansas City rub and put in the smoker at 250. Plan on the meat taking 1-1.5 hours per pound. Remove the meat when the internal temp is 195-200. Wrap in plastic wrap and let rest for an hour.
After resting remove the bone, and then stand at the counter and fulfill some deep seeded primal need to rip apart and eat meat with your bear hands.
Remember to take photos and post them. I never seem to remember to take photos!Made all my dry rubs yesterday, and will fire it up early tomorrow morning!
