A super easy marinade is good old Wishbone Italian Dressing.  Big bottle from Sams or Costco.  When out of the baggie after 24 hrs in the refer, I dust mine with some rub and into the smoker at 210°.  At 4 hrs, change the water.  Cook to interior 185° then FTC for a min of an hour...I do two hrs.  Enjoy.

This is something to plan on about 12-14° cooktime - 4 hrs of it smoke.

I'm sure there are other great marinades out there, but Bill's advice about Italian dressing is right on the money1  Simple and effective! [:p]
