They soaked for about 20 hrs in a spice salt brine, then i did a dry rub over night. I smoked it for about 5-6 hours. Temps were spiking as i was having problems with it being so cold out and the temps dropping. They were ranging from 150-250 lol i gave up and put it in the oven at 270 for 45 mins in a roaster pan with apple juice and a little apple cider vinegar under a grate and let it steam covered.
