1: SM025
2. 19lb
3. 36hr brine, let dry out in refrigerator over night, cavity filled with herbs, orange slices, apples slices and compound butter under/over skin.
4. Set at 300 (Pre-heated and added 1.5oz cherry wood with the bird), it got up and stayed around 275
5. Done in 3hrs
6. My bird pulled a Janet Jackson. It's skin on one side pulled back exposing the entire breast, even with toothpicks set to hold it. I think next time I will skip the over night drying, I think that may have been part of the problem. Overall it was fantastic. Even the exposed breast meat came out perfect.
