It went for 13 hrs. It's good, but not as tender as I would expect. Did 220°. Might try 250 next time.
Funny thing, I always nailed it before I had any knowledge or control over temperature, using my old reliable smoker cheap ass smoker. Afterwards not so much.

And at 3:45am it's up to temp, making smoke and I throw it on. I decided to put it on the top rack, vs the bottom to maximize the charcoal. I think that foil barrier right below the bottom rack would take more energy to keep at 220° than it will up top.
Not exactly back to bed, since I've got a fire going, but it'll be going until 6:00pm. I can leave it alone for a few hours, check on it then.

Pull the butt from the brine, pat it dry wit paper towels, rub it. The rub here is that same coffee/cocoa/sumac + some brown sugar, garlic powder and other stuff I don't remember. First time I've used this rub this way.
