Smoked our Turkey again this year, and I'll tell ya practice definitely makes perfect. Couldn't have asked for better results. Nice golden color and meat so juicy.... I used pecan wood chips this year and a very simple brine. Excellent results.
Purdy bird!I used pecan also this year.Normally use apple.I think I might like the pecan a a tad more.Any of the fruit woods on the milder on the milder side are good.
I hear ya about the practice - I need lots more.
I smoked my first turkey yesterday and while it was edible, it was a bit to dry and smokey for mine and the wife's taste.
Can you give a newbie a few tips? What temp did you use and for how long?
Your bird looks great!
