Don't think I've ever went over 5 hrs. for BBs, spares yes.
Pics are it didn't happen.
Great, one of the few times I did not take pictures.
First image: Mothers-day, was pressed for time, about 6 hours. Could have gone longer.
Second image: Easter, 11 hours, stack of two. A purist might argue that these were over-cooked... The meat was tender enough to suck off the bone
Indirect, drip-pan, pan boiling 50/50 water and apple-juice keeping up the humidity, around 240... give or take. I buy them from BJ`s, they are nicely trimmed with just a right amount fat to keep them moist.
edit: that 240 something is at the top of the kettle top where the thermometer is. The actual temp. at the meat is TBD. Probably around 160 or so. Just a WAG Rob.
