    I put 2 sticks of unsalted butter inside the cavity as the butter melts it really help keep the Turkey moist.

      Interesting. I would say, if your going to use 2 sticks of butter, melt it down and inject it. I’m sure your not hurting anything with putting it into the cavity, but butter doesn’t evaporate up, it melts down.
      That just me though. If your making awesome turkey, smoke on!!!
      Thanks for watching!

      I usually cook it in the oven and wrapped, but this year I'm smoking it on my pit boss vertical. I live in Kentucky and the weather for here is going to be great, sunny and 55. Everything I have cooked on it has been great, even jerky. Love your channel and follow you on Facebook. Happy Thanksgiving, I will be smoking on Thanksgiving. @@TheAmericanSmoke

      @@TheAmericanSmoke As long as I have my pellet smoker, no more turkeys in the oven. The turkey was fantastic. Nice smoke flavor and very juicy. The skin was crisp. Weather permitting I will smoke a ham for Christmas. Also to clerify when I put the sticks of butter in the cavity I baked it in the oven covered. So the butter added moisture to it because it was sealed. This would be a waste of butter uncovered in a smoker. Thanks for the videos and look forward to more.

    Anyone else deep frying their turkey besides me? Best turkey you’ll ever have

      I’m going to deep fry one for Christmas. Do you season before you fry or after?

      @@TheAmericanSmokeI injected before frying and never seasoned. It washes off in the oil and doesn’t penetrate the skin if you put it in after.

      That’s what I’ve heard. I’ll be doing a salt brine over night before frying to get the salt flavor into the bird and the. Also injecting with Cajun butter before cooking. After slicing and pulling the bird I will sprinkle with light Cajun seasoning. I think it will be a winner!

    Doing our turkey in our Pit Boss vertical, first turkey cook we've ever done. You'll see it in the group, Zach. Thanks for the advice, and enjoy your holiday!

    I usually cook my turkey in the oven. I decided to cook it in pit boss vertical smoker. If you have never had a smoked turkey you need to try one. Fantastic, moist tender and the smoke flavor sets it off. Next year I'm going to inject the turkey. Best turkey I've ever had. Thank you for the video.

    I'm doing brisket instead of turkey. But I watched it anyway.

      Same rules apply. Different cook and finishing temps and rest times but both are big cooks.
      Are you pretty solid on brisket?
