When you don’t have a gas smoker, improvise! Got a rack of spareribs in there, two smoker boxes, and three pieces of kiawe on the flavor bars just away from directly above the heat. Foiled up to hold in the smoke.
Holding real steady at 270.
Has anyone ever done a turkey upright, but instead of butt down, neck down? I couldn’t find a turkey stand, and although I’ve done a Fosters can before it was hard to get the bird to stay stood up. Thought about doing neck down on a chicken beer can holder, tying the legs to keep them in place...
I’m concerned that if I smoke at the mostly recommended higher temp for a turkey (compared to 250-275), I will risk a dry breast. Does smoking rather than cooking in an oven help reduce the risk of this? I was going to do a standup method with a foster can. I’m less concerned about a crispy skin...
The title pretty much says it. I'm wanting to smoke a turkey I've had in my deep freezer for two years. Wondering if the taste will be affected. The freezer isn't a defrosting type, so I'm thinking the moisture of the bird won't be a problem.

Smoking a bird today, having Thanksgiving on Hawaiian-time. First, a pic of the view. Gotta make you all jealous, right?
And the setup. This is the Lowes Master Forge with some mods. Just added the tamper on top last night, hoping to have to do less playing with the fire that time.
And...
I'm doing a 15# turkey tomorrow for a "late Thanksgiving" and was not able to brine it ahead of time. I know I'm missing out on possibly adding flavor, but am I still going to get a juicy bird as long as I watch the temp? Planned on finishing in the oven at 425 after the bird hits 150 in order...
Aloha!
Just getting into to the smoking game and I'm glad I found this amazing site. I live on the island of Maui and teach at Maui High School.
I just purchased a Master Forge bullet type smoker (charcoal) from Lowes. Basically a ECB but with a couple improvements (plastice handles, holes...
