If you can get it to fit on the food support grill, it'll cook faster. I'd smoke it for about 6 hours, then wrap it in foil to keep it moist and finish it off in the oven. There are instructions in the manual on how to do this.

I did an 11-pounder a few weeks back for about 7 hours. In retrospect, I should have done it around 6. I was able to put it on the food support grill, and used water (but also opened up the top vents more to get a higher temperature). I also added about 10-11 coals every hour for the first 4-5 hours. By the end, the coals were almost too few, but at that point I had the glaze on already, so it was just finishing up.
Oh, and I used 2.75 ounces of cherry wood (broke into two chunks). It was a good amount of smoke taste, not too much. The leftovers were just as tasty as the first meal on it too!
