Pork butt stalled at 143

KenfromMI yes, it will leak, if you want a clean cooler I’d put it in a foil pan first to catch any drippings.
-
KenfromMI Arron Franklin has a series of BBQ, I’ve seen it on i think the discovery channel. Worth watching, lots of good information. One episode had foil and butcher paper and showed the difference. Both are good, it’s a matter of preference as to which type of bark you prefer.
He also has a book that shows his wrapping and even a few time/temperature with and without wrapping.

Chef its on PBS, it’s called BBQ With Franklin

Yeah, I’m very aware of his show. I like to FTC after wrapping in towels if I have to rest it for a while thats why I asked about the paper leaking.

KenfromMI yep, it will be messier but not like it pours out. I have a beach towel I wrap it in before going in the cooler, then I have my 'cooler blankets" I wrap it all up in. Cooler blankets as in cheap, whatever I have found over the years…most rummage sale finds. I wash the beach towel by hand with dawn dish soap if it gets grease on it. Not trying to convince anyone, to each their own, but you don’t know if you don’t try.

KenfromMI Thanks, i thought it was something along those lines.

Tex_77 Yep, that’s where I saw it. It was a couple years ago, I’ve slept since then.

If that is the same Franklin PBS show, he also compared paper and foil with naked
His companion seemed to prefer the naked that had a crunchier, stronger bark with more smoke flavor in the meat
Goes to show to each his/her own -
Yeah, I dont always foil. I do if I’m having company over and it looks like it wont be ready on time or I need to get past the plateau. I’m indifferent when it comes to bark. I can have it crunchy or not. What i do a lot is not foil until its done. Foil to cooler and open all my vents up to increase the temperature and throw some spatchcocked chickens on and pull the butt out of the cooler when teh chickens are done and serve pulled pork and pulled chicken.
