How to cook Alligator 🐊 on the GMG Big Pig 🐷 #alligator #bbq 

This was a 31 pound Alligator 🐊 to give you a better gauge on the cost/temps/times of this entire cook!

🐊 Brine overnight with lemons, Oranges, Apples, Brown Sugar, Salt, Cinnamon, and Thyme.
🐊 I used bearandburtons W Sauce as a binder
🐊 Then use your favorite BBQ Rub
🐊 Using Twin TempSpike I stuck the probes in the thickest part of the tail.
🐊 In the smoker at 275 degrees spritzing with every 30 minutes with 50/50 Apple Juice and Worcestershire Sauce.
🐊 When the Internal Temperature reached 165 degrees I painted on BBQ sauce and let it tack on for 30 minutes.
🐊 This cook took roughly 6 hours and I let the Alligator rest for 30 minutes!
