simple vension shoulder/ham smoke

looking for one. i tried searching and got quite long recipes and procedures.

i've never brined, but methinks game may be the place to start.

i have wild turkey and deer to cook (well, they're still walking around just yet). but it would save me a lot of time processing the carcasses if i could develop a smoker ritual. boned and ground is fine, but labor intensive.

so i'm looking for the simplest venison/game cooking plan for a stick-fed bandera and a guy who is improving his cooking rather quickly. (was never bad before, but now...i understand much more of what/why/how i'm doing.)

so i'll do a simple brine (how long?), fairly simple rub, cook with hickory or cherry or ? (have a saw and access to nearly any hardwood). i heat with wood.

smoke for 1/2 the cook, then wrap (temps?). i see 140 listed. it that all?

don't care to use bacon if i don't _have_ to.

'nuff of me showing my iggy no rance. what yall say?

fantastic, thanks for the photoset. i like the way you roll.

i'm going to need a bigger freezer.
