    Smokin' Wolverine,
    not sure this will help, but i do a brined breast every sunday to slice for lunch meat. i cook at 325 till internal is about 160. indirect. with liquid in the drip pan as i don't need crispy skin for lunch meat. been using a fist sized chuck of hickory, dry, on top of the lump, not too much as it will over power the flavor. i have not cooked breast at lower longer because i am afraid of drying. thighs or fatty pieces i would do lower and slower. the stuffed one should take longer. hope this helps and one of the eggsperts who is not on their way to atlanta will provide better advice.

    <p />Smokin' Wolverine,
    if you want to smoke them, do them indirect at 250 dome with apple and or cherry chunks or chips. should take about 4 hours roughly for a 8 pound bone in breast to get to 160 internal.[p]if you want a cripy skin, baste with butter and kick it up to 350-375 for a half hour at the end.

  • Smokin' Wolverine,
    these two were done at 300-325 dome for about 3 hours to an internal of 165-170.
    good luck
