INGREDIENTS THAT YOU WILL NEED FOR THIS COOK:

1 thawed and brined turkey (https://youtu.be/CVef4HTtxFA)
1 bunch of sage
1 bunch of rosemarie
1 bunch of thyme
5 cloves of Garlic
Olive Oil
Black pepper
Sea Salt

***HOW TO SMOKE A TURKEY***

Step #1
First you need to make your wet rub by taking your garlic and herbs and finely mincing them all up. Once they are finely minced place them in to a bowl and add your olive oil until you get a paste like consistency. After that is made you will rub the wet rub all over your turkey. Once that is done you will take your fresh ground pepper and apply it to the outside followed by a touch of fresh ground sea salt.

NOTE: You only need a little bit of salt if you have already brined your turkey.

Step #2
Once your turkey has been prepare you are going to get your Pit Barrel set up and cooking. If you are using another type of grill you will want to set it up for indirect cooking at 275-300 degrees. Also add in your favourite wood for smoking with. NOTE: It is often best to use a lighter smoke wood like apple, cherry etc.

Step #3
Place your turkey into the grill and begin cooking for 3-4 hours depending on the size of your turkey. Our 13 lb turkey took us around 3.5 hours to cook.

Step #4
When your turkey has hit an internal tempreture of 165 you will remove it from the pit barrel cooker and tent it with some foil for around 20 minutes and allow the turkey to rest. After your turkey has rested slice into it and taste it’s juicy and delicious meat!

That’s it, Enjoy.

    Thanks so much for this video! Hey – so do you take the top off for the last 30m or so to get a crispy skin or did the skin crisp up with the lid on? Ive had issues with smoking my chickens and rubbery skin. Just wanted to know how the skin of your turkey turned out. Thank you!

    I have smoked a turkey several years for Thanksgiving. I prefer to give my turkeys a three-week cure with a 60/40 salt/sugar/herbs and spices/nitrates. I use a 22" Weber charcoal smoker, adding soaked pear/apple/mulberry chunks. I mount the turkey on a standing rack atop the lower grill that sits over the water bowl. This smokes for about eight hours. When done and chilled, I discard all of the skin (too much residual carcinogens), slice and cut up all the tasty pink meat, and save the bagged bones in the freezer for making soup stock. Everyone kvells over the heavenly tasting moist meat!!

    I'm going to need one of those Pit Barrel cookers. They seem to put out a great product. Tha's a great looking Turkey!! My favorite rub for turkey is a local Kansas City rub. Its from a competition team called the Slabs. It's their "Birds and Bones" rub. Really good stuff man!!

    That’s a beautiful bird, Jabin! Looks like it smoked up real nice. Just filmed my turkey video yesterday and it turned out great, too. Only thing is I wished I would’ve sliced into it like you did. I screwed it up lol!!

    Hey Jamie, That Turkey really had nice color. Thanks for the series on brining and smoking turkey. I ordered a rotisserie from CB, and 2 turkey hangers from PBC to do turkeys for Thanksgiving. May be a hanger vs rotisserie. We'll see. May have a practice run this weekend using couple whole chickens. Thanks-Phil
