Ok guys I'm tackling my first smoked birds. After trying to read as much on here as i can, here is my plans. let me know your thoughts.
(2) 15 lb turkeys
injecting one with a broth herb combo and the other with creole butter
rubbing both birds with garlic herb butter on top of the skin as well as under the skin
light rub with some salt and pepper added in
plan on smoking them on the jamb @325-350* for approximately 3 hours???
Im am busy as hell the leading up to the cook and have decided not to brine as i just don't have the time.
Any changes? Also are y'all smoking them directly on the grates or do you put them in a pan and smoke them?
Thanks, DR
