Had this in the freezer so I thought it would be good to smoke this one. It was almost 10 lbs before I cut out the backbone so it would sit better in the smoker. I decided not to brine as it said it had a 18% solution so I just put on a coat of oil and Weber"s Kick'n Chicken rub. Smoked with 2.7 oz of cherry at 250 till IT hit 165. No water pan. Took about 4 hrs. Turned out very good, ate half and froze the other half for another meal. Skin looked good but as usual too rubbery.
