Smoking 2 Turkeys
I totally agree. It's best to swallow a little pride for being negligent about a critical step than to put anyone at risk over something I prepared. I love all types of cooking and I take great pride in everything I prepare. I would have been devastated if I had served those birds and someone... -
Smoking 2 Turkeys
Well dammit! I just read the thread about keeping the brine cold. Here's what I wrote on that thread. Well I may be screwed. I didn't know about keeping it at 40 degrees or less. I have TWO turkeys in a turkey fry tub with 4 gallons of brine. I started brining them around 9am this morning and I... -
question on slaughterhouse brine
Well I may be screwed. I didn't know about keeping it at 40 degrees or less. I have TWO turkeys in a turkey fry tub with 4 gallons of brine. I started brining them around 9am this morning and I put the lid on the tub and set it on the concrete floor in the mudroom. It's been there all day. I... -
Smoking 2 Turkeys
I was having the same concerns about smoking two turkeys, one above the other on the separate racks in each ECB. My fear was that the one on the bottom would get done quicker than the one on the top. As mentioned in a previous thread some time ago, I did the basic ECB mods of drilling 9 vent... -

Nee Some Turkey Advice!
It turned out fine. I'm guessing it got down to near 100 for only a short time before I restoked it and the ECB shot up to 400. The turkey was well done all the way to the bone and extremely juicy since I had injected it. I think it helped a lot that I cut the bird in half before smoking it... -

Nee Some Turkey Advice!
No I did not. Between 5:30 and 8am I got it up to an internal temp of 165F. The ECB itself got up to 450F for a bit.I then wrapped it and put it in the over for about an hour -

Nee Some Turkey Advice!
Well most of the night (I started smoking at around 10:15pm) my temps hung around 200 with a finally jump up to 250 or a little higher. By 2:30am I had used 3 chimneys full of lump charcoal and about 8 good blocks of apple wood. I awoke at 5:30 and my temp was down to 100 F. So I just stoked it... -
Nee Some Turkey Advice!
Thank you Piney. I have them in almost two gallons of water with one and one half cups of canning salt. I'm also going to inject them with Cajun Butter from Bass Pro before I smoke them. Maybe I'll start them now and then get them up to 250 with a digital thermometer and then I can let them go... -
Nee Some Turkey Advice!
I'm frying a bird and smoking one for the mothers at our church tomorrow. When those festivities are over, I've got a couple of nice Tri-Tips resting with my own rub on them that I'm going to throw on the smoker later. Here's my question though. How does cutting a turkey in half change my brine... -
Expanding My ECB (revised)
Got a got 14# full packer at Sams Club. Trimmed all the fat clean which I'm sure was at least 4#, which you can see in the pictures. then I cut the brisket where it looked to taper down to the smalIer flat. I got the brisket on at 6:15. About 9:30 just before leaving for church I had to add the...- bimmer
