I seared on both sides to get a nice crust. It went indirect until internal temp was around 125-130. Indirect was around 350 or so at the lid. It took around 40 min or so. I always go by temp. When you take it off around 125, it will rise to around 130 or so. Just cut them against grain. I threw in a couple of chunks of dogwood. It is like oak but a tad milder.
