To fuck or to cook?

Right now I'm thinking I'll do a simple rub, start the meat on the grill for a couple of hours, then switch to the oven at 250. I will probably prepare the Simple Sweet and Tangy Barbecue Sauce from Cook's Illustrated. The only issue is whether I start the meat early Saturday morning or late Friday night (people are coming at 4).

Meant 195. The 4 and 9 look kind of alike
