Anyone smoking a turkey for Thanksgiving this year?

Smoke one? I don't even know how to light one.

Beat me to it.

So I'm injecting the turkey with my own "special blend" concoction, here is what I have decided to go with:

 

Chicken stock

apple juice that I may split 50/50 with hard apple cider

honey

salt

pepper

onion powder

garlic powder

siracha sauce

smoked paprika

ancho chili powder

 

Bring to a quick simmer to meld all the flavor/spices together, let cool and inject. As you can see going with a sweet/a little heat theme here. This should also make a good basting/mopping sauce for the turkey during smoking as well.

 

I am also oiling down the outside of the turkey with olive oil and coating with a nice bbq rub.

 

Have a 11.5 pound turkey, doing all my prep work tonight and putting on the smoker in the morning.

Just tasted my injection mix...pretty darn tasty I really like it...also added white pepper and dried citrus zest to the mix.

How do you find papers big enough for a turkey?

Papers? Of do you mean a bag to brine in? I just buy the kits, it comes with the bag.

No I meant papers to roll the turkey up in and smoke it.
