Plan my turkey cook | Cookshack

Heres my plan for my first turkey cook on the new fec100... If you can make it better let me know

2 13 lb turkeys brined in smokin's holiday brine

Rub one with CS Spicey chicken rub and butter and the other with butcherbbq honey rub and butter. Will cook for about an hour at 250 then 325 until done. Will cover with butter soaked cheesecloth when it looks pretty.

Rest and serve.

Sound about right?

How long do you plan for it to take?

Or after done tell me how long it took.

I doing 1 14lb with Plowboy's Yardbird (Out of Honey Rub at the moment) 180 for an hour then 300 til done with a water pan to help catch the drippings and add moisture.

Nordy the only thing I'd change is adding the cheesecloth early on.

David, using your temps I'd guess 16 minutes @ lb.

Turned out pretty good. Right at 4 hours with 3 12-13lb birds in the FEC100 as above.
