This year I decided to smoke the turkeys for Thanksgiving. Wasn't sure how well they would turn out since I've only smoked Meat and fish in this particular smoker.
I brined the turkeys for 24 hours. Pulled and prepped them at 6am.

Thermometers in place and a dose of heavy applewood.

Took 7-8 hours before it was done.

I pulled it the moment it hit 165 degrees. Perfect.

Well, almost all of it was eaten. It came out really good but was a pain to tend to the fire box. My old pit is not a turn it on and forget it type of smoker.
Anyone do any cooking?
The Stick Burners are a constant chore but that's how the Real Pro's do it ;D 8)
Beautiful. Some hard work and I can only imagine how good it was. Never had smoked turkey before.
Looks freakin awesome
