Yesterday after the rain stopped, I fired up the WSM and cooked up 2 eye of round roast beef, and a Butterball turkey breast.  I brined the turkey in the Slaughterhouse brine, and seasoned the roast beef with a beef rub I threw together.  I let both sit in the frig overnight to soak in the flavors.  Next day I hit them both with a little no salt rub. 

I posted in the poultry section, because I had more pics of the turkey.  Here they are.


I set the temp on the WSM to 275 degrees using KB along with 2 chunks of hickory, and 2 chunks of apple wood.



Here's a pic halfway through the cook, roughly 1 1/2 hrs.


Total cook time was just under 3 hours.  The roast beef was cooked to an IT of 145, and the turkey to 165.


I sliced off a few pieces of the turkey for Monday's dinner.


The rest was left whole, sliced, vacuum packed, and placed in the freezer.  I did leave a few slices for sammy's in the next day or two.


Hope everyone has a great week.  Thanks for looking.

Good stuff!  Due to series of bad weather, being out of town, etc, this week (for the first time in 3 months) I had to buy lunchmeat instead of having made my own.  Not the same.  I've done my own ham, corned beef, and roast beef, and I had been thinking about doing turkey.  This just convinced me.
 
 
That looks great!...JJ
