Sounds good and looking forward to the pics. I'm going to have a full smoker too and I definteily agree with you about the need for some "liquid" companionship during the smoke.

the brisket was marinated since 3pm w/ balsamic,worchy, fajita spice, uncle chris', & garlic- covered & chilled- i just added a 1/2 guinness stout ( yeah i got the other 1/2 fer me) & 1/2 cup italian dressing- covered & chilled until 3 am - on the fire by 5 am & done by 6pm ( yah i'm cheating & using the oven for an hour here & there) point is- everything is rubbed & marinated & even the freezer smells like food.... dagnabbitt i wanna eat now !!!!!!!!!!!
