Decided to smoke it this year and got pretty pissed. Started at 0900 and ate at 1500 and it wasn't completely done. Looks like it didn't defrost all the way. 20 min in the oven finished it off though. Next year I may smoke for a few hours then fry to finish it off. Once it was done it tasted awesome. Brined in apple juice and spices, peach/chipotle rub, then smoked with cherry wood.
