I have a 20lb turkey in my smoker (Masterbuilt electric) with two temp probes, one in the breast and one in the thigh. I started with the smoker at 250° and dropped it down to 230° but within two hours my thermometers were beeping telling me I've reached 160° internal temp. How is that possible? What am I doing wrong and how do I fix it?
 
Re position the therms, your probably too close to a bone.

There is no way it is done in 2 hours.
