Like I said on your thread I had some deer meat and wanted to try your brine and my first brineattempt. So yesterday bought the brine ingredients knowing I was going to be doing a butt for work so here goes with some pics. Mixed brine last night and put in two chunks of deer meat and into fridge about 6pm. Got up 330 am to start the fire for the butt. Got butt in about 445. Put both pieces of deer meat in around 530 am running around 220-245F . One piece I pulled after 2hrs and went in pot with onion, potatoes, carrots and celery and seasoned. Still low simmering as I type this. Second one pulled about 4 hrs later IT 147 foiled and wrapped. Hour later eggs, biscuits, apple butter and brine/smoked deer. Probably best breakfast in years. Wife loved it and daughter said best deer cook yet.
