In an effort to make up for Brad's lack of pictures, here's the Lechón Asado from the other day w/ some cook times for reference.

3.6 LB seed fed heritage (almost) pork butt from Bledsoe Meats (local farm)

After about 16 hours marinating in mojo (recipe a few posts back)

After about 2:25 at barely 220F

After 3:30, rotated it a bit to put the skin toward the fire to render the fat out and get the far edges to cook as the bricked weber does suffer from a slight temp drop as you get further from the coals, and at low temps like this, it's very noticeable. Also started to apply some additional mojo paste (left side - I applied to the whole cut, just stopped for a moment to shoot the photo)

I could go for a snack now...
