Brine (soak in water) overnight

Put bird in pan, add spices (salt & others) and cut up I stick of butter and put pieces of butter all over and inside. Olive oil over top and wrap bird with "Cheese Cloth" (no it is not really made of cheese). The cheese cloth is a net type of material found in the walmart fabric section. The cheese cloth keeps the bird's skin from gettin tough and helps keep the bird moist. Put about 1 inch of water in pan with bird. Put foil over pan and smoke 12-14 lb bird for approx 2.4-3 hrs on 300-350.

Have done it this way for 10 yrs...my wife's Dr told us about the cheese cloth and it works wonders!
