  1. Trim pork fat down to 1/4 inch.

  2. Rub with mustard and small amount of honey.

  3. Rub liberally with dry rub.

  4. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 8+ hours.

  5. Set smoker to 225 for indirect cooking. Practice different temps later on.

  6. Set pork butt on counter top to bring close to room temperature.

  7. When Smoker reaches desired temperature, place a few wood chunks on coals. Place meat in smoker.

  8. For first 2-3 hours, spritz with Apple Juice every 45 minutes.

  9. Smoke until 198-203 internal temperature. The bone will wiggle loose easily.
