    Another Super Bowl Butt thread....

    I'm at 183 right now on two butts. Not sure if I'll have enough time. Turned up the heat but don't want to dry them out. Thoughts??

    smoking turkey

    Spatchcocked a 17lb bird. I've been reading that they cook a lot faster that way but don't know any rule for it. Trying to get a 3 pm dinner. TIA.

    smoking turkey

    Yes. If you thaw in cold water and replace the cold water every half hour and flip the bird every time you do.

    smoking turkey

    Looking to do a practice run as well either this or next weekend. Will look into spatchcocking as well. I guess my only question at the moment is choice of wood and then to brine or not. I'm new to smoking and have only used hickory and haven't done poultry in the smoker yet either.

    Hokie Smoker

    Brand new to smoking. Got an itch to do a smoked turkey (Go Hokies!) for thanksgiving so I went out and got a 30' MES. Doing a pork shoulder today for some pulled pork. Any tips or suggestions? Already been brining overnight so we'll see.
