This was really quite good! I halved the recipe and used less liquid smoke than indicated as I thought the flavor might be too harsh. The flavor was fine and I probably could have used the full amount of liquid smoke. I didn't cut the meat into chunks, leaving it whole. Mine was well cooked at the end of 5 hrs on high.
