New guy here,
Sorry for the thread jack, I need advice. I have an offset smoker, I want to smoke a turkey for Thankgiving. I have practiced on two other turkeys with not very good results. Turkey #1 I injected the bird with some store bought brine with nothing on the skin. The meat tasted ok but the skin was almost leather like. Bird #2 I didn't inject but for the skin I mixed up some Olive Oil and seasoning. The result was about the same the meat was just ok and the skin was leather like. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
