Apple wood smoked turkey

[WolfeMan]

I'm doing this bird for a guy at work. He will get 5 vacuum sealed frozen bags (2 bags of breast, 1 bag of thighs, 1 of legs and 1 of wings).

This is an enhanced Shadybrook Farm Bird, which I use often and are pretty good without brining.

Royal Oak with 3 chunks of Apple


Normal set up of 2 firebricks


Covered with foil


Put the bird on


Then lit the WSM with the hose torch. Then left all vents open 100% until the dome temp hit 200º, then shut the bottom three down 75%.


Didn't touch it again for 6 hours until the breast hit 160º. The weather was perfect, high 50's and no wind!


Cut up the bird and into the freezer overnight and will be vacuum sealed today.
