    Best Recipe for Smoked Turkey

    I'm doing a smoked turkey for the family this Christmas. I need the best recipe there is for the brine, cooking temp and time, wood and rub to use, etc, to keep it as moist and flavorful as possible. I will be using an electric smoker, though I don't remember the make/model. I'm also assuming...

    Elk Roast for Christmas

    I think I'm going to go for the sirloin butt roast because it's the most tender and sirloin is flavorful, and a mix of apple and cherry wood. Why no injecting or basting? And why just water versus, say, apple juice? I'd heard apple juice was good for ensuring moisture retention.

    Elk Roast for Christmas

    It's the best red meat in existence. Besides maybe dry aged wagyu beef.

    Elk Roast for Christmas

    Yeah, I'm buying the elk. Can't hunt elk in Florida unfortunately, and I lack the time and money to go elsewhere for it. Any rubs or rub recipes that you'd recommend? What would do you usually use?

    Elk Roast for Christmas

    I've actually forgotten the model, it was a college graduation present I got in August and I haven't had a chance to use it, I moved away from home for the Air Force and it's sitting at my parents' house. Pretty sure it uses a tray though. Definitely looking to get sliced meat, warm for dinner.

    Cooking temp for pork butts?

    Gotcha. I've also got to do some whole chickens on the same smoker starting about now, I'm assuming the temperature should be lower for those? Around 250?

    Cooking temp for pork butts?

    I have a couple of analog gauge meat thermometers, but I can get a digital one.

    Cooking temp for pork butts?

    That's really interesting, counterintuitive to me since I mostly grill but it makes sense.

    Cooking temp for pork butts?

    Will do. I'm surprised though, they've been out there for 4.5 hours now and the thermometer is still reading somewhere between 100-120 degrees. How long does it usually take to reach the stall point?

    Cooking temp for pork butts?

    Good to know, how do I keep it from drying out at the higher temps?
