Knows what a fatty is.
I am planning to smoke turkey for Thanksgiving. So the practice turkey is this weekend. I plan to get a fresh 10 pounder. Make up a batch of brine and let it soak it the frig for 12hrs or so. Rub it inside, out and under the skin. I am cooking on a NB Bandera with RO lump with chunks of hickory.
Ok here are the questions.
1. What temp is good to give me a bird that is cooked thru and not dry on the outside?
2. What should I baste it with to keep the skin edible? Do I need added oil to the mopping sauce?
3. What kind of time should I be planning to smoke for? I will determine doneness by temp.
Any other tips would be great! :-D
Thanks,
Lou
