Here is the instructions for cooking "Rodney’s World Famous Pork Boston Butts". (It's not actually mine, but Dr. BBQ's but it is dang good!)
This is a basic barbecue rub "Big Time Rub" from Dr. BBQ that works on any food for smoking or grilling. Granulated garlic and onion are coarser than powder; you can substitute garlic and onion powder.

INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup salt

1/2 cup turbinado sugar (not regular sugar) (turbinado sugar can be purchased at most large grocery stores)

1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1 tablespoon granulated garlic

1 tablespoon granulated onion

2 tablespoons paprika

2 tablespoons chili powder

2 tablespoons freshly ground pepper

2 teaspoons cayenne pepper

1 tablespoon dried thyme

1 tablespoon ground cumin

2 tablespoons ground nutmeg

INSTRUCTIONS

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Store any unused rub in an airtight container for up to 6 months.

COOKING

When your ready to cook your butt follow these simple instructions:

Put the Big Time Rub (heavily) onto the butt (including Fat Cap) 3-4 hours before cooking (keep refrigereated)

Pull the meat out of the fridge 1 hour before cooking.

Soak Hickory wood chips in water 1 hour before cooking (about 2 hand fulls)

Bring the Egg up to 225 degrees.

Add the soaked Hickory wood chips in the Egg.

Put the plate setter into the egg feet up.

Add the cooking grate.

Place the Butt in the egg Fat Cap side up (Fat Cap side up is critical)

Cook for 21-24 hours

The internal temperature of the butt should reach 201 degrees. (This does seem high but there is science to why you need to bring it to 201 degrees)

Pull the butt off the Egg and let sit for 15 minutes.

Pull the pork and serve. (You want to shred the outside skin as well (the black part that looks burnt) and include this in the BBQ).

ENJOY !

I typically use a North Carolina vinegar based sauce on top!
