I've never done two at a time before, should I expect more time than it would take for one?

Bigger butt, closest to heat, expect one to take an extra hour but I don't know why.
Butt

by cooking bigger closer to heat source seems to help. I always cook mixed grill during parties and have a Barrel and 2 Weber smokers going. When I can get a weber free I finish the last 10 degrees on the hotter. The Webar promotes crispy bark as heat is closer.
