    My second smoke, turkey!!!

    Rub the outside with Vegetable oil before smoking and smoke at as high of a temp as you can get. I think my 12lber took around 5 hours or so but i can't remember for sure since it's been a few months. Here's a few I have done lately. I always used Alton Brown's Honey Brine Recipe and use his...

    So far so good- tossed the butts in around 7:30pm and they are cooking away. I forgot to take a picture of #3 but here is a picture of two of them at the 5 hour mark. Current temp is 139. Just foiled for overnight and I will pull them out in the morning.

    Some Briskets I've done since I got my MES

    I used Rudy's Rub https://rudysbbq.com/store/c-3-spices.aspx and applied it 24 hours ahead and plastic wrapped the brisket. Then I pretty much followed these instructions: http://www.traegergrills.com/recipes/detail/54 On the traeger the "smoke" setting is about 190 degrees.

    First time doing ribs on my MES 30

    They ended up sticking to the bones a bit more than they should have but they tasted great. My girlfriend doesn't like ribs so I haven't had an occasion to try again yet.
