Pork Butt and Rib ?

[swampthang]

I have found the sweet spot temp on my Traeger for BB's to be 250*, but I normally do my pork butts at 225*. I want to do a combo this weekend. I figure Ill start the butt at 225* and turn it up to 250* and when it reaches 140* wrap it in foil and throw the ribs on . Do you think this plan will work or should I just do the butt at 250* from the get-go!

I think you be fine with those temps.
I just resently tried something new with my cooker and the temps wouldn't come down below 270, so I let her run that way.

I was cooking a Butt and she came out great, plus I've seen people cook at higher temps all the time.

You'll be fine.

225...250...I seriously don't think you'll ever notice a difference except for slightly lower cooking times. Cook wherever you want.

Might I ask why you're foiling?

If you're going to wrap it, I'd wrap it at 160 and unwrap at 180, pull meat at 195-200. Your cooking temps will be fine, personally for those two things I'd run 250 all day.

I cook almost everything at 250 in my smokers,20 degress up or down is not going to hurt anything.
