Gotta luncheon at work on Tuesday so I'm cooking a 21lb bird today. Brined overnight in a simple brine and cooking over cherry chunks and Royal Oak Lump.

That's a big bird!! Looks good. Tooth picks are to hold the skin in place, I believe.

This bird 'Turbo'd'! Went out about 2 hours into the cook and heard alot of noise in the cooker....I'm like what the heck?? I immediately know my temp is higher than what my Maverick is telling me and I'm right! This was a big bird and the pit probe was laying on top of the bird, so I was about 25º higher than the reading I was getting. Glad I caught it when I did, so not a big deal, but this 21lb bird cooked in exactly 5 hours....160º breast and 178º in the thighs. Much faster than I prefer, but when I was cutting it up it tasted fine.

Looks fabulous as always!
Funny about the cooking time. I've cooked three turkeys and a turkey breast this fall and all of them were ready quite a bit sooner than I had estimated. Wonder why that is? Are the birds leaner than in years past so there is less under the skin fat to render? Its just weird! In any event, your bird looks great!

Larry,
Awesome looking bird! I can't wait for the turkeys to go on sale so I can stock the freezer and try my first whole bird cook. I did a breast for my first cook on my smoker and it was great. Smokin', Grillin', Chillin' & Pickin' 2000-2001 Genesis Gold-C, 2010 WSM 18.5", BGE XL |
