Butt drippings on your meat?
Try it.
Got two giant butts dripping on a giant chuck. Should cut down on dryness that plagues smoking chucks, without needing to wrap anything during cook time.
It's an experiment still. I've done it twice prior and I'm not sure it does anything that wrapping doesn't. But it saves me from wrapping. This is the first time I've fully loaded the upper rack to maximize butt drippings. If it's still not worth the effort over wrapping a chuck solo, I will give up on the idea. 25lbs of meat is a lot to experiment with. It will all turn out edible and be consumed, but it's an exercise in efficiency - whether or not I can do a cheaper cut of beef without being too involved in the process.
