I have not made it out to the areas yet Paul. I have been trying to get my son his deer. I have areas in mind just need to go look.
I did do a test run on my smoker with a deer roast and it turned out oh so good. I used a onion rub, plus it was back strap so that helps.
I have a big neck roast I am going to smoke. I may bake it the night before and let it smoke while we hunt. Mine is a wood so I have to load it up with the wood and let it do its thing.
I am really looking forward to the hunt. Less then a month to go.
