I realize this isn’t the cooking board but this one gets more traffic. Mods feel free to move if you feel necessary.
I don’t eat turkey (except the turkey at the Garden Grill in EPCOT and I could eat my weight in that stuff. Can’t get em to tell me how to do the brine because they do so many birds at once.). So I’ve never cooked a turkey and sort of by hook or crook got saddled with doing so for Thanksgiving. I was going to brine it and smoke it. I’m wondering what wood to smoke it with. I have apple from a felled tree in the yard, and hickory, readily available. I can get some others if need be. I have smoked pork butts on my Weber grill but was considering bumming an electric smoker to do this turkey in. I’m out of lump charcoal and I’m not in favor of smoking over briquettes.
Also, this will have to be smoked on Wednesday so I need tips on reheating for Thanksgiving dinner.
I need the boards experiences here. Thank you in advance!
