Came across this article, I would be crazy nervous to do anything to it and would probably stay up all night with the smoker just protecting it or something.
Scotch: Current favorite- The Arran (anything by them), Glenmorangie 12yr Lasanta, sherry cask finished. The Balvenie Double Wood, also like Oban 18yr, and The Glenlivet Nadurra (Oloroso sherry cask finished) among others. Neat please.

I know me and I wouldn't get much of it, I would have over like 50 people to try it. Anyone that asked for sauce would be served bologna with Sweet Baby Rays.
I'm more of a liquor man myself, always love an Old Fashioned.
Guy I get Bulleit Rye really cheaply here, I use that, Angostura bitters, some orange bitters, teaspoon of sugar. Triple a normal recipe I usually don't have fresh orange on hand, hence the orange bitters, and sometimes I use a moonshine soaked cherry I get by the jar here locally.
Dry brine for a minimum of 48 hours, rub it down with fish sauce and fresh cracked black pepper.
Oak and a little pecan. And I'd probably fight with the smoker to keep it between 200-230. Oh yeah I'd go very low and very slow!
I'd buy a batch of toothpicks to taste doneness. Wrap it in brand new towels then into a Faux cambro for at least 3 hour.
