OK I am attempting my first turkey on my new smoker. I purchased a 13 lb full turkey and currently have it soaking in a brine. I am planning on smoking it around 275-350 to attempt to cook it at the right speed. I have read that it should only take around 3-4 hours is this about the right time frame?
I am assuming that I place the bird on the top rack and a pan underneath to catch the drippings for some gravy. Once the bird is out of the brine and just prior to throwing it on anyone have any ideas about seasoning as it is smoking?
I am smoking with lump cowboy charcoal and pecan chunks.
Thanks for the advice in advance.
