I am new to the WSM but have used a Brinkman for years...in fact working on my second one now. Let's talk turkey.
For years I have used the Brinkman for the Turkey brining overnight. After drying off the turkey I inject olive oil that was sauteed with spices (garlic, onion, salt, oregano, thyme) then cooled. I smoked it for about six hours for a 20 pounder. This recipe has given me excellent results in the past with beautiful meat that is really moist. Great smoke ring.
Now that I have the WSM I'm wondering whether to convert to the recipe on this website with a higher heat and no water in the pan.
Also, why smoke a small bird if a large one fits in the grill?
