Update

Bird out of brine and rubbed down

Letting the bird come up to room temp so I headed out to start the smoker.

Smoker is up to temp time to put the bird on

About a 1 1/2 hours in and the bird is looking good

2 hours and internal temp was 160F pulled bird of and foiled for a nice rest

The bird was not for this dinner so no money shot sorry. I did have a lot of coals left so I tossed on a chuckie

About 2 1/2 hours in and looking good

Now time to toss back one of these and watch the race

Thanks for looking. Have fun and happy smoking :)

I should have added that it was smoked over Royal oak with cherry wood .. And I had a smoker temp of around 300F and the skin turned out great..
