    First turkey smoke! Yea, very excited! Qviews...

    Since this is my virgin turkey smoke I just have to share!  This is my second smoke in my masterbuilt electric 30 smoker.  First was a boston butt.

    Another problem with the maverick thermometer

    Thanks Bob, but it seems to be reading the meat temp correctly...it's the temp inside the smoker that seems to be way off.  I don't believe I can put that part in water.  Any other ideas? Thanks, Linda

    Another problem with the maverick thermometer

    I'm in the process of smoking a turkey.  I set my MES on 295 (the highest it can go)  At this time the smokers says the temp is 258 and the thermometer says the temp is 271.  HUGH difference!  It seems to have the bird temp correct as I have another digital probe inserted into the bird and they...

    Quick question ...

    Thanks Pops.  I'm not cooking anything else so I should raise the bird?  I have a masterbuilt electric 30.  It's on the bottom now, but I can raise it if you feel that is a better idea.  This is my first bird...hope to have some nice pictures later. Thanks Linda

    Goning to smoke my first turkey

    Thank you for your help.  Although Jeff's recipe sounds great, I was thinking of making my own brine.  What do you think about apples and garlic?  I thought I'd brine the bird in 1/2 water and 1/2 apple juice with salt and garlic.  Under the skin I think I use the garlic butter recipe and smoke...

    Goning to smoke my first turkey

    Next weekend I'm going to smoke my first whole 13 pound turkey.  I have got some great ideas for the brining from this site, but I have one question.  I keep seeing that the turkey needs to be washed.  Yes, I realize that all poultry should be carefully washed.  However, do I rinse the turkey...
