I wanted a Madame, but all of the eggs in the carton have been hard boiled.

I'm planning to use it only for smoking and curing.
For that, it's the perfect size (I am the only one here who eats smoked meat.) I worked out it will hold 6 sides of salmon or 5kg of beef strips.

I do my beef jerky in a similar apparatus.
Works champion :)
 
I'm going to smoke a pork butt tomorrow, but time is going to be limited. It's probably about a 12 pound butt, and I will only have about 8 hours instead of 12 or more that I would prefer. My thoughts are to half, quarter or third it (it does of course have a bone in it, so will just have to divide it as I can) and smoke it for 8 hours. I am going to marinate it with ingredients to include pineapple, so that will start breaking it down as well.

Does anyone have any experience with chopping one up and reducing the smoking time?
If no experience, does anyone have any thoughts about the best way to do this?

Thanks!

When I smoke meat and have a time restriction, I cut it into strips (like biltong) and hang it rather than lay it flat.
Cuts the time by more than half.
