    Big Bird....low and slow?

    I don't understand the whole Tur-duc-en thing? Do you buy these ready to cook? Can I make one myself? I don't care for duck but I love chicken and pork. I'm thinking of stuffing a pork butt with boneless chicken breasts.

    Adding a Afterburner

    I gutted my old turkey fryer, cut a hole in the bottom of my GOSM, and made a simple bracket to bolt the burner to. I reduced the size of the charcoal pan slightly and raised it about 1.5".

    Can I convert to Gas?

    I have a charcoal powered GOSM and would like to buy or build a gas conversion kit. Has anyone done this? I don't want to buy a gas smoker because as of now...I would rather use charcoal. But after the the "Kentucky Tenderizer" (aluminumfoil) goes on, the smoker is no more than an oven. So...

    Do you mean a pile of charcoal on one side or the other or on both sides?

    Can anyone say "Weber?"

    Since I've never smoked one before, I guess I think I need gravey to lube the "De-Juiced" oven bird. I agree with the smoke block theroy.

    Can anyone say "Weber?"

    I am planning on smoking a Turkey on my Weber Performer. I have been reading on this sight and almost everyone suggest 300 to 350. My Charcoal GOSM is difficult to maintain at that temp, so I'm planning to use indirect heat/smoke with the Weber. The Weber cook book suggested putting it in a...
