I am going to be smoking 6 butts of pulled pork this weekend for a party and I need some advice.
I have one UDS with 2 racks in it. I think I can fit all 6 in there at once depending on the size of the butts that I get. How will that affect the cooking time doing all 6 at once? It might be a bit crowded.
Should I do 3 butts in two separate smokes, would that be better?
I need to have it ready to serve at noon on sunday and I want to try and wait as long as possible to pull the pork so that it is fresh for serving. If I smoke them all at one time, I was thinking of starting around midnight saturday night...but I am not sure if that is enough time for 6 butts. Last time I did 2 butts and it was around 9 hours.
Or I could do 3 on saturday afternoon and 3 more early sunday morning.
What advice can you give me?
Thanks
