Hey guys. I'm new to this site so bear with me as this is probably in the wrong section. Anyways I'll introduce myself. Im 17 years old and been smoking since I was 14. Cooking since I was 3. I purchased a MES 40" for a STEAL at academy today for $199 8 hours before it was supposed to be on sale (must have been in the fine print. All I seen was it was today but the manager helped me out and gave it to me for sale price)
Anyways. Onto my dilemma. I am smoking the turkey for tomorrow. Highest temp I can set the MES for is 275 but as you'll see further down. I'm cooking at 225. My 12 pound turkey is bringing and I'll be injecting and rubbing later. How long should I prepare to smoke it for? I Need it done for noon
Also. My grandfather heard of my purchase and went out and bout me a brisket to cook too. (ran out of rub ingredients do I just bought some gourmet steak rub. Lots of herbs. Never tried an herb crusted brisket before) I injected it and it's sitting in the fridge. It's a 7 pound brisket flat. Trimmed injected and rubbed. Normally I wrap my briskets but I'm gonna try the standard Texas way of doing things (even though I'm in Louisiana) and not wrap it. Just mop it every now and then. So. How long should a 7 pound brisket flat. Without wrapping. Take at 225?
Thanks for your time
