    doing my 1st whole turkey...

    hey SQWIB, have you ever used Kitchen Bouquet ??  My dad taught me to make gravy about 15 years ago and I will never make gravy again w/out it. Also a dash or two of Maggi seasoning can help, and I've used liquid smoke in very small quantities with success. Just my 2 cents on the gravy, HTH.

    doing my 1st whole turkey...

    Thanks guys for the assist. I was wondering why you would start a pit that early too. Mine's @ 225(ish) after about 20-30 minutes (an offset CB).

    doing my 1st whole turkey...

    So, a friend just brought us a thawed, 13# bird. I have never done whole bird, but have done hundreds of turkey breast. Questions.... 1. What's a good pit temp ?? I usually do breast @ 225, should I boost the pit temp to 250 or higher ?? 2. Time ??? 3. I usually give my breast a 12 hour...
