1: Which smoker - elite 025
2. Turkey Size - 12.58 lbs
3. Preps - brined 40 hours in SO Holiday brine; pulled back skin w/compound butter spread
4. Smoker temp - set at 300*
5. Total Time - 3 hours
6. Comments - I mixed SO poultry rub and country crock (now I know butter would have been better b/c the margarine was too soft and didn't want to spread well). I placed the turkey in a hot smoker that already had a small chunk of apple wood. It cooked quicker than i thought it would. I did use cheesecloth soaked in the remainder of melted compound butter. Over cooked both breast and thigh to about 170 and 180 respectively. It was fine though. The turkey was delicious and was devoured. Everyone commented on how flavorful and moist it was. I will definitely do another one soon. I took pics but will have to add them later.
