Decided to use the old water smoker, thought after spending the day cleaning Grandma's yard it would be fairly fool proof.
Woke up at 2:30am to check it, temp ok but low on fuel. Threw in a couple of chunks of white oak then came in the house to check to see what the internet had to say about cooking times. About 15minutes go by and I to recheck the internal temperature and the gage is pegged and the skin is burned.
I decided with an internal temperature of 125 to go ahead and finish it off in the oven. I could peel the skin and dry out the meat or leave it on and take a chance of it tasting burned then pull and separate the meat before taking out to church. I decide on the latter.
Fingers crossed...I'll find out soon if Ia have a protein to take to church today.
