Recipe suggestions for a guy making is first smoked turkey?

[Andrew Luis]

I am going to loosely use Harry Soo's recipe...but without the tang and just using his 'generic' rub.

Do you guys have any suggestions? I think I am going to do a wet brine too instead. Any reccomendations on a killer brine?

The BBQ Pit Boys Apple Cider brine is what I'm using this yr. Last yr I used Alton Brown's. Here are the links:

Killlller! Thanks, Dwain!

Def. doing the BBQ Pitboys brine.

Any other good recipe on what to do with the rest of the bird after brining?

How about Gravy recipes?

How about Gravy recipes?

There is no better gravy than the Mad Max Gravy.

Do you suggest wrapping the smoked bird in foil after it is cooked? I am concerned about rubbery skin.

 

[Al Silverman]

Just tent the bird with a piece of foil after letting it cool for 10 mins. If you wrap, you'll definitely have soggy skin.

Thanks! Will do.

Now.....anyone have a good recipe for stuffing??

Sorry for all the Qs! I promise--will have pics.


Also have an injector...thinking of using it on the bird. What should I inject it with? Butter?
