Turkey in an Old Smokey Grill w/ The Vortex
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- Though I’ve cooked many many turkeys on old Smokey Grills. This turkey was 14.83 lbs. This time I tried it with the Vortex. Due to my error the turkey wasn’t to pretty for presentation , yet even so it was very moist and delicious. This cook was an experiment not experience. However I will do this again -be soon. #Vortex #OldSmokey #JDCharcoal

Been a loyal follower since about a year ago when my wonderful partner bought me an 18" Old Smokey, and now you've convinced me to get my 18" a 22" big brother, I'm gonna try and baptize her with a big ol turkey this holiday season, cheers from Houston, TX Big Lew!!
Dude, you don’t have to go to the store to get one. You can go to the factory! Thanks for watching.
You've proved beauty is only skin deep, but good is to the bone!!
Nice cook...
Good point, thank you.
Lew a Turkey should look tender juicy and delicious and that one does. My poultry has never been fashion show or Instagram worthy. Love the vortex idea. Great video
“I failed so you didn’t have too.” I cooked this Thursday night. Last night I converted the left overs to gumbo.
Big Lew! Yes sir... Old Smokey's get the job done. Hell I smoked a turkey on an 18" old Smokey 🔥 I'd love to cook a turkey that way!!
I need to update this video. I have cooked a Turkey with this method several times since. They come out pretty looking now. I don’t keep the charcoal so hot. Thanks man. I love cooking on my Old Smokey.
It's in the air, and i think Big Lew is in Holiday Spirits :)
I don’t know, maybe I’m just putting on airs!
@@BigLewBBQ ...you might mean puttin' on the Ritz!....Now get some rest, you got holiday goodies coming
in tues&wed :)
@@gregormiller4037 Thank you! Very much, sir.
That turkey looked delicious to me Big Lew! Looked juicy as can be and I bet it tasted amazing! I've been wanting to do a turkey like that but got rid of my vertical cookers..... Might just have to get a new one!
I went back a couple of years for this one. Big Lew, just ordered the 18 inch Old Smokey! So freaking excited! So sorry my friend but I'll be bugging you for advice.
Where do you live? Here in the central Gulf South, Old Smokey’s are available at most hardware stores and even Wal-Mart. However the brand is still somewhat regional. So if you live out side of the area you probably do meet to order them.
They are ubiquitous Arron’s these parts.
Here is a link to my old Smokey play list with nearly a hundred videos in it. ua-cam.com/play/PLCMmeo0Gae76K8HFN8FWJjhaKsEBX6sDo.html&si=gGMTQeMdrPwlSxhu
Also please join our facebook group. OldSmokey BBQ Club. “OldSmokey” is written as one word for exclusivity.
Next year I'm doing three turkeys. One on my 22 my Old Smokey, one on my 18, and the third one on a Weber kettle. I love your channel.
Thank you Robert.
You don't need to wait until Nov 2022 for the next one! You are an inspiration sir.
I won’t, but it will be next year before my viewers see my do this again. This was an experiment, next year it will be experience. Thanks for watching.
Just ordered #22 Old Smokey plan to do a brined turkey breast. Thanks for the video!
You are welcome! Old Smokey’s are great.
When I saw the amount of charcoal, I was thinking, "yeah that's going to get hot". Trial and error is the only way we learn. Great job though. Meat looked scrumptious
Big Lew! You inspired me to start smoking turkeys on one of your earlier videos. Been doing it 5 years in a row with my dad and they’ve gotten better and better each year. We need more people like you in this wold! Happy thanksgiving
Thank you, Sir. Glad you enjoy the show. Happy Thanksgiving.
Merry Christmas my old Smokey is here! About to do an Alabama smoked turkey!
Awesome!
Great looking Turkey! Great use of the Vortex! I have seen one of those Old Smokey’s in action here in the UK 🇬🇧 A guy from Texas turned up with one at an event I organised. Stay Safe 👍🇬🇧
That’s awesome. They are ubiquitous here in the Gulf South. Not very common in the rest of the U.S. Yet you saw one in the UK. That’s cool
I like that set up with the vortex and the Old Smokey very cool glad the turkey was tasty.
Thank you!
Cool setup. Looked awesome. Thanks for continuing to promote the Old Smokey. You inspired me to get an 18" one and I had forgotten what great smokers they are.
I think OS is the best value in the barbecue industry. There are better grills, but none better in this price range. I love my OS!
I love smoked Turkey! I follow Josh & Babe, fun couple.Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your kids!
Hey Lew- You look great my man! Glad to see you trending up brother! Tis the season to give thanks
Thank you, Sir!
@@BigLewBBQ One more thing- I have never made nor eaten oyster dressing. I love oysters and love dressings. Could you maybe show us how to make oyster dressing? Thanks
@@Bob.Loblaw.Bob.Loblaw I actually plan to make one this weekend when my daughter is home from college. One like that one seen in this video. I made one several years ago on video when my channel was new. However it is part of a real long video where I made a complete thanks giving meal in one smoker.

Firecups for the win
As long as it was tender and juicy is what matters the most. Loved the video.
Thank you very much.
Loved this video!
Thank you!
@@BigLewBBQ You inspired me to go out and buy the 22". Just assembled it today :)
All hail the Old Smokey!
Yes indeed!
Hey buddy looks good to me! I love smoking turkeys!
As usual another great video
I think I like this style of cooking turkey. It had a lot of good techniques. I appreciate the learning curve, you shared with us. Thanks for failing, so l wouldn't have to. But at the same time, you were able to learn and teach many things. Even with that, the turkey turned out good. Happy Thanksgiving🦃🥧. Nicely Done. Thanks for sharing.😎🇺🇸.
Those were very kind words. Thank you, they didn’t sound grumpy at all.
@@BigLewBBQ I Know Right?? I DO KNOW HOW TO Talk, Without GRUMPY Words , BUT, Seldom Able to, sometimes it's more challenging than I want to deal with. Lol. 😎🇺🇸.
Just bought an old smokey it will be arriving tomorrow
Cool!
Looks good, nice and moist🤤
I still think that turkey looks pretty good. Cheers, Big Lew! ✌️
Thank you!
Yes sr
Years ago I eat at a place called the Ugly Biscuit & brother that biscuit was ugly...but it was the BEST biscuit . Pretty isn't always the best .
Yep, as Forest use to say “Pretty is as pretty does”
Brother I have been meaning to do this for years with my vortex. I have the same trouble with heat when I rotisserie sometimes because of the big hole where the skewer goes through. Just open a crack seems to hold my 325 to 350 I’m looking for. Thanks for sharing my friend and a blessed Thanksgiving to you and your family.
Thanks Gary!
Texas brotherr
I’m not from Texas.
I grill steaks on the old smokey but wanting that sear
Is there a set up you've tried to get that beautiful steak sear
Did you say sear your steak ?
With the vortex.
It's on clearance at walmart for 14 bucks!
Get it!
