Smoked Turkey in the Pit Barrel Cooker - Learn to Smoke ... image

Categories     Entree    Main Course

Total Time 260 minutes

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 240 minutes

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 Whole Turkey ((Fresh, minimally processed, 12-14 lbs recommended))
2 TBS Kosher Salt ((Coarse))
1 Cup Mayonnaise
1/2 Bottle Jeff's Original Rub (((about ½ cup)))

Steps:

  • Dry brine the turkey by sprinkling kosher salt evenly over the breast, legs, wings and back of the turkey. Total salt usage should be about 2 TBS. Place the turkey in the fridge uncovered for about 8 hours or overnight.
  • Mix together 1 cup of mayonnaise with about ½ bottle of Jeff's original rub (½ cup).
  • Make sure the turkey is nice and dry then apply the mayonnaise/rub mixture all over the outside of the turkey. Get some under the skin wherever possible.
  • Set up Pit Barrel Cooker according to directions in manual. If using a regular smoker, set it up to cook at about 240°F using indirect heat.
  • Place the turkey in the Pit Barrel using hooks or the special turkey hanger. You can also just set it on the included grate if you prefer.
  • Let the turkey cook in the PBC for approximately 4 hours or until a thermometer reads 165°F in the thickest part of the breast or thigh. If you are cooking at a lower temperature such as 240°F using a normal smoker, the time will be closer to 6 or 7 hours.
  • When the turkey reaches the finish temperature, remove it from the cooker/smoker and let it rest under foil for about 20 minutes before carving.
  • Enjoy!

Prep Time 24 hours

Cook Time 8 hours

16-18 lb Turkey (Preferably fresh)
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:
