about your pig belly you did a while back 
I told you I would be asking questions Ha Ha!!
OK you said:
My butcher had a pork belly roast on sale last week so i thought that´d be a good idea to try out my new Cyber-Q Guru on the egg.
So i cut the skin of the belly and put a good bit of kosher salt into the cuts and rubbed the rest of the outside with buttrub. Put it in the fridge overnight and started the egg the next day.
Started at 230 F for 40 Minutes and then raised the temp to 370 to crisp the skin. It was awesome to hear the popping of the skin outside of the egg
The Belly was very moist, tender and flavorful, but the skin was the best. Wow !
All pretty clear and I am amusing from the graf of you Digi Que that it cooked for about 90 minutes. have mine thawing as I type for tomorrow's dinner.

Good luck with that, cant wait to see the pics !
Dont forget to cut the skin crosswise ( not into the meat ) and rub salt into the cuts´.

Wow, 11 pounds is huge. Dont worry if you have any leftovers, they are fantastic if you fry em just like bacon with some eggs.
