So after doing a couple small birds, I am now up to a 29lb bird for this weekend.
I did the smaller ones at 225 and they were perfect at 160 in the breast.
For a bigger bird, I am worried the breast will be done first, what do you guys think?
Gonna shoot for a 8-10 hour smoke, but can spattlecock it, or 6 hour at higher temp.
Still going to brine for 24 hours first.
Any thoughts?
