I have a few pounds of hops. I want to use some of these up and I figure a nice SMaSH would be a great way to go with these. I want to use Amarillo. I have 15 lbs of 2 row I will be using for the recipe. I was thinking something like listed below. Please toss up suggestions, or critique.

This is my first recipe, and its an easy one at that!

I guess it would be an imperial with that heavy of a grain bill huh? Ok, Imperial Amarillo SMaSH!
 
personally, id move the 45min add to 10 or flameout, or split between the two. you got enough hops in there to take the loss in bitterness, and 45mins is pretty much a less efficiency 60min add. either way it looks good
