Sounds like a nice way to spend some family time. Sounds like a nice tasty meal as well. A few friends and I are meeting up on April 3 to smoke some meat. I believe we are planning to have a Boston butt, whole chickens, a brisket, and some sausage smoking that day. Accompanied with some jalapeno poppers, mac n' cheese, and baked beans. For this event we will be using hickory and oak via the indirect method for cooking.
Since we got the Big Green Egg, probably 95% of my outdoor cooking is by the indirect method. I also use oak lump charcoal, and usually hickory, but yesterday I used apple chunks. I see you are in Ga., my wife is from Macon and every time we go back we always hit a place up near Gray. Often we go up and spend a couple of day at Unicoi state park and hit almost every barbecue joint we see up in the area. I like the eastern pork better then than the almost brisket only barbeque served here in Texas, plus I like the sauces better in the SE over the heavy tomato based stuff here.
