  • Come along as I prepare dinner for us. We will be having a whole roaster chicken in the pit barrel cooker using lump charcoal and a few apple wood chips for the smoke. Of course some of my favorite AP Seasoning from ‪@howtobbqright‬ and a little poultry seasoning from a local vendor.
    -Cheers!

      I like the cajun injector on chickens and turkies....works well even if you deep fry whole turkies or chickens. I remember catching the chicken at Granny's house before she fried it up. Had to help plucking it...Granny had crippling arthritis.

    If you are going to do a while turkey my suggestion would be to brine it first for up to 24 hours depending on size of bird, great for maintaining moisture and getting more flavors into meat

    I use a similar type of seasoning for my turkeys, salt, pepper, garlic, onion, and Bell’s seasoning, which may be only available in parts of New England. To keep the turkey moist, I mix that into melted butter and inject under the skin. I also add a few cut up lemons in the cavity.
    You’ve got plenty of time to experiment before Thanksgiving.

    Indirect cook on a kettle grill. Put the seasoning under the skin. Cook breast side down on a bed of Pineapple peel/skin. Celery works just as well. There's no limit to what can be used as a "Bed". Sometimes use fruit/fresh herbs under the poultry skin. 20 to 25 minutes a pound. Roughly half way through flip bird on back and dome breast with foil. Make an effort to keep the temp of the kettle around 350 F. Sometimes Brine for 24 hours. Bird in 13 gal trash bag with brine. Bag-O-Bird in 5 gallon bucket of ice with rock salt. Check bucket about every 2 to 3 hours. Drain water add more ice and salt.
    Great Job gang. To bad we don't have smell o vision!

    Hard to beat a whole roasted chicken ! Consider trying onetime to stuff quartered or smaller cuts of naval oranges inside and trussed closed, both ends. The orange juice is amazing flavor. All we use is a light dusting of Lawry's Seasoned Salt and Lawry's Seasoned Pepper...great combo.

    I too live for smokin' and grillin' and found the perfect work around. I now use a char/griller offset barrel smoker exclusively. It smokes low & slow and can also grill at molten lava temps if that's the goal.

      @@lordjaashin was alikum alsalam. it's simple, season the turkey like you want to make it in the oven. I have a smoker and light the charcoal in the bottom of the fire bix. Then put chunks of apple wood on it. I soak the wood in water for 15-30 minutes so it doesn't burn instantly. Put it on the charcoal. Put the turky on the rack of the smoker. Try to keep the temperature around 250 degrees F. Add wood to the smoke fire as needed. 3 hours later turn the turkey over and go for 3 more hours. Check the temperature of the meat. It should be at 160 on the thick meat part. You can place the turkey in an aluminum Pan to catch the drippings. I also like to brush it with olive oil half way so the skin doesn't dry out.

    Smoked a turkey for turkey day last year and have done a few in the past. I have a side draft smoker but the key is what wood you use and time. Apple wood is perfect...something not too potent...hickory can even be a bit overpowering. Of course controlling the smoke and not over smoking your bird is important since the taste is nowhere near as strong as a red meat. I grill with lump...but always briquettes when smoking. Chicken turned out perfect...thanks for sharing big E.

    Well done brother. If you want to get all fancy pants you can throw thyme, rosemary, fresh garlic and s and p in a processor or some type of whirly devise. Stuff that mix between the skin and meat with your digits and go to town. If you cut out the wishbone before cooking, the breast will be easier to cut. The salad looks like the perfect remedy for the meat sweats. A rare lady goes for the thigh first. Love you guys.
