Smoked Pork Butt

I love our smoker.  Not only is it easy to use but it makes any meat as tasty as can be. My favorite style of meat to do is the boneless pork butts.  They turn out so juicy, and the best part is when you have left overs, you can make pulled pork with it! This recipe is for a 2.5lb pork butt. Most are double the size of this, so you can just double the recipe and adjust the time according to your smoker.
