Quick questimation on Turkey and Butt cook times please

Thespanishgrill · Oct 19, 2013

Hey all,

Throwing on my first go with Boston Butt, it's a 6.7 pounder, then I have 3 medium size turkey breasts on the bone.
Can you give me a rough time table for cooking at 265-275 ?

Thanks all and happy cooking today.

What cooker are you using? Reason i asked is because UDS type of heat (direct)cooks a tad faster.

I'd guesstimate @ 275 the butt should take a little over an hour per lb and the turkey will take 45 minutes a lb. Gotta go probe tender on the butt and 165 IT in the thickest part of the poultry.

Sorry should have put that, 22 WSM 2nd cook so it's running a little warm at the minute

Dry water pan? Oh make sure to have the poultry on the bottom rack and pork up top

dry pan, I was going to foil the butt when it hit 165 then the turkey should be able to fit on the top rack next to it I would guess ?

Turkey won't take more than that and the butt I go fat side down on vertical cookers. The butt shouldn't take much more than 8 hours give or take. All meat has a mind of it's own so who knows!
