Brined boston butts

Any of you grillmeisters ever brine a boston but before smoking one?
How was it?

Apparently none of our grillmeisters understand the concept of brining

It's a simple concept y'all!

I never brine mine. I just trim the fat a little and smoke em

I have done some research and find that most do not brine but those who have said it is very good. Here are some findings:

Seems it's done more with poultry, but its great for moisture.
