I really like the idea of parting out the bird like that. Sure would make it a lot easier to cook and then to carve. That's a lot of bird in a pretty short time period.

Thanks a lot John!
I missed this one Al. Your turkey looks really good, you sure are getting allot of good use from the Lang.
Great job and keep up the good work! Point!
You won't need to put water in it, but leave it in the smoker as a heat shield.Ok thanks one more thing if I smoke it in a pan like you did with chicken broth, I should not need my water pan. I am using a brinkman elec smoker.
Looks mighty fine!
Thanks a lot guys!That is some fine looking bird!
It's really just your favorite stuffing & rolled into balls.
Good stuff. Any chance of getting that stuffing ball recipe?
I prefer to smoke chickens & turkeys in a pan.
Wow, I'm so impressed! Can I ask some newbie questions? I just joined 5 min ago :) I asked a question about collecting drippings for gravy and now I see that you smoked yours in a tray! I don't know what a Lang is, is that how it works? Or is this the way to go if you want to collect the drippings for gravy? Also, does anyone use a cheese cloth to prevent very dark coloring? I read somewhere (I have read a gazillion posts today) that a chef said that a cheese cloth covered in butter and oil keeps the bird juicy and needs to be taken off half way through the smoking. I have roasted 15+ turkeys but never smoked one. Super, duper excited!
That's the way I used to do them, spatchcocked in a pan.
Have you tried this method with a spatchcocked turkey instead of parting it out? This year I will attempt my first smoked turkey breast in my new Pit Boss pellet grill (Couldn't afford a Treager :)). so far ribs, brisket, chicken have all turned out really well I don't expect this breast to be an issue but I like the pan idea, never tried that one. That bird looks phenomenal! Can almost smell it from here.
Your welcome!
Thank you Al for your reply! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving :)
