Trim the fat cap off the butt. Throw it in the bucket.
Wait, first you need to unwrap it from the packaging and while you are trying really hard to keep everything clean, drain about half the liquid from the butt packaging down the face of your lower kitchen cabinet doors. That the way I did it.
Now throw it in the bucket and let it sit in the beer fridge overnight. This will go about 11 hours which is more than enough.

I make a brine at a ratio of 1cup each kosher salt and brown sugar to 1 gallon of water. Here it was a gallon and a half, so 1 1/2 cups of each to the water.

Set up my temp controller, with the fan, pit probe and the cpu all connected up.
I put the pit probe where the meat will go, but not under the meat, because it will not read correctly if meat it touching it. Also, I cover the water pan (no water) with foil because it is easier to clean.
Set all of that up now.
