    Anyone here own a Green Mountain pellet grill?

    If you can afford it, I would suggest a Yoder  640....  Built like a tank, Made in the US, and great customer service....  Traeger and Green Mountain hit a price point, but in the long run the Yoder's will outlast them big time.  You get what you pay for, and the value is there for the extra...

    Most store bought turkeys are pre injected with liquids that make them seem juicier than Natural Birds....  It will say what it's injected with on the labels....   Like a Butterball might say "up to 8 percent solution of water, salt, spices.".... So no need to further brine them.... Richie

    Smoked my first Spatchcocked Turkey....

    Spatchcocked before brining...  Did the brine in a 16 QT Stainless (Nonreactive) Stock Pot.  Refrigerated overnight in the Pot.  Dropped the Bird in (14 Lbs) and put it back in the fridge.  That size pot should handle up to a 15 or maybe 16 Lb Bird.  Fits easier after spatchcocking....   any...

    Here is a pic of the pit temps over time.....  Missed the very beginning .......   Forgot to turn the App on right when I started....  The big dip was when I had the pit open for some photos.  The next dip was open for a shorter period....  Just shows that there are random variations over time...

    Smoked my first Spatchcocked Turkey....

    Great tip....  I'll give it a try....Do they need to kept refrigerated while brining?   Care to share the brine recipe in terms of how much of each to use?  :-) Really appreciate your help here..... Richie

    My thinking was a little lower and slower might make the bird even more tender....  I'm fairly new to smoking so I just like trying different things to see what results they yield.   Richie

    Smoked my first Spatchcocked Turkey....

    160 works fine.... It picks up a few degrees when resting under foil.... People pull it off at even lower temps.... 165 is a conservative recommendation... Same is said for cooking burgers medium rare or rare, yet it's done all the time. As long as the juices run clear and the meat is white...
