I was wondering if I could get some help on this subject. I have read and seen many different ways to smoke a turkey. Ok for starters I’m using a pellet grill. I did smoke a small turkey for thanksgiving and the flavor was amazing, along with it being very juicy and moist. I spatchcocked and brined it, then did a dry rub under the skin. However, the skin was rubbery, although the color was great. What is the best way to crisp the skin. Also I’m going to be smoking a 22lb. turkey today, it’s been brining for 48 hours, and I plan on spatchcocking it again. I was wondering what temps do I start out with to obtain crisp skin, excellent smoke flavor and avoid the danger zone with such a big bird. It was a lot easier with a smaller bird. Just looking for advice on a bigger bird.
