6 Reviews of Smoked Turkey

From: Chef #177633

On Dec 1, 2004

I have been doing this for years myself. Three suggestions: 1. Get an electric smoker, also by Brinkmann. Saves trouble with the charcoal. 2. Get a remote digital thermometer, so you don't have to open the smoker and let the heat out. 3. If it is cold outside, place smoker under an upside down garbage can with holes in the bottom to let the smoke out, and raised on low blocks to let the air for the charcoal in.

    We smoked a turkey one year for Thanksgiving and it was awesome! My dad (being from Louisiana) usually takes orders around Thanksgiving to fry turkeys. This particular Thanksgiving, he had the bright idea to smoke his Cajun turkeys. The bird was so moist and juicy! It was his best idea yet! =o)

    This is "slap yo mama" bbq invented by a texican. Good god, it makes me ashamed of being from georgia. On a scale of 1 (lo) to 5 (hi), this one is a 10.

    Although I'm not a turkey lover for Thanksgiving, or Christmas, this turkey came out good. My husband and family really liked the smoky flavor. Since my hubby was sick and couldn't keep up with it, I had to be the one to get up at all hours of the night to check on it. All I can say is "kudos" to all men who are bbq and food smokers, because as a lady, I hardly could see the point in all the work, besides the taste. If hubby wants to do this again, he can, but I would rather prefer the simpler method of baking it....lol.

    Toby, this one is not just a home run, it's a GRAND SLAM! The 8-pound turkey breast smoked all the way through. Took 4 hours in my Brinkman smoker using Kingsford's hickory chip charcoal. Easter dinner 2009 will be topic of culinary conversations for our family for years. - Clif
