7.5 lber, brined for 21 hours, and it was a tad bit salty, for my taste.. not much, just a tad..
I used 1c Gal. distilled water, 1 cup salt, 1/2 cup sugar, and some seasonings..
Turned out very moist and tasty, but I might either reduce the brine time, or soak in water after the brine next time..
Used oak chunks for smoke and it took about 3 hours and change at 300-325..
