No, I just pulled them from the brine bucket, drained the cavity and put them on the grill. Didn't review any recipes either. One thing I should be doing and haven't is to keep a journal of our smokes for future reference. The type of meat, prep, ambient conditions, time cooked, etc., would be helpful.

Thanks. I'm fairly new at smoking but everything we've done with the Weber has turned out well. The thermometer is pretty important.
