I plan on smoking my 1st turkey this Sunday!! I rotisseried one a few years ago on the grill with some foil packets, but this will be my first attempt in my smoker. 15# frozen, it's been in the refrigerator now since Monday. I plan on spatchcocking (never done it before but not afraid to try). My plan is just a fun smoke, I plan on making nice sandwiches with it first, leftover quesadillas or something later next week.
Questions:
Do I HAVE to brine it?
Do I HAVE to inject it, or put butter under the skin?
What is the best wood for turkey?
How long of a smoke in MES should I plan for?
Thanks!
