I have the meat sweats. The Prime Rib was outstanding, barely needed a knife to cut it with flavor and juicy the whole way through. When we pulled the beef off the smoker, we tossed a little Boston Butt on, figuring it wouldn’t take too long and we woud have a snack while waiting for the ball to drop. Well, that didn’t work as planned. Damned Butt just wouldn’t take heat. We finally called it a night at 0330 and that butt was only at 174* (goal was 30 minutes with internal temp of 200).

Good morning guys, and happy new year everyone!
We've started the new year with a storm, temperature around 40°F so it ain't bad.
Plan for today is to play with a JRed 2152, never done a advanced timings on them, this will be the first, its a gift saw to an old guy I know.
January month will be firewood work, finish as many half finish saw as I can.
24th february is puppie pick up, other then a building I need to renovate I plan to spend most of the year with the puppie.

You may have wrapped it in foil and thrown it in the oven. (what people don't know wont hurt them)
Bring it up to around 200 and you'd be a happy man

The butt should have taken about 3.5-4 hours and was supposed to be some “finger pickings” for the last hour and a half - 2 hours before ball dropped. FAIL! Hahaha The wimenz were in the house making Bread Pudding. Its all good, we consumed beer (maybe some shine, too), talked shiite, played some old school rock and country, talked guns and trucks. Good time with good neighbors.

What was your outside temp? Sometimes throwing a welding blanket or some other flame retarded and insulated cover over the smoker helps keep the heat in versus letting it dissipate.

64-68 degrees with a very slight breeze. Rack temp was 225* top of the cooker was 200* so we weren’t losing much in the way of heat.

That's pretty warm ambient. I was just brainstorming after I read your post. I've played hell with keeping temps up lately with the combination of humidity, cold and rain.
