Beechnut Smoked Turkey Legs & Thighs

[Jerome D.]

Today was a bit of a dress rehearsal for Thanksgiving. The turkey was seasoned with some poultry rub, then smoked in the SS red Performer at 275° using Royal Oak lump and northern beechnut wood. Unfortunately I can't provide any comments on the flavor because I caught a nasty cold from my 2-year-old, and have totally lost my sense of taste and smell. My family said it tasted good, so I'll take their word for it. Thanks for checking out the photos!

Jerome the turkey looks great. The rub really made the color pop on the legs and thighs.

True story: when you posted a photo of your hot coals Thermapen after you first bought it, I immediately went to the Thermoworks website and clicked on the "ADD TO CART" button.
