The goal of this video is to answer the question that I'm getting about 510 times per week from friends and friends of the channel of, "How do I smoke my first pork butt for pulled pork?"

In this video, I try to answer all of the questions people have asked me lately, so let me know in the comments if there's something I forgot, and I'll jump in and answer there.
