Here we go!

Thawed, trimmed, and rinsed several times. These were Blarney brand, and the seasoning was applied directly and not in a packet so I had to rinse / wash / trim that away.

Soaking in a food grade 5 gallon bucket

Add an ice bottle to assure it remains cold.

It is currently 34° outside so I will just add a lid and set it on the deck. Will change the water a couple time today but it is mostly a waiting game for now.
 
Thanks Everyone!

Update!

After several rinse and soak cycles yesterday, I dried and rubbed.

Covered and kept cool for the overnight rest.

This morning, I woke up to this.

No worries. Blew the snow off the grills and deck then on with business.

That's dedication.

Seriously there is no way on this earth I'd be trying to smoke anything in that kind of weather!
