Awesome bro the color you got on that bird was amazing. Your teaser inspired me to do a turkey on my Bronco today as well. Like you I'm loving this Oklahoma Joe's Bronco drum smoker it's so versatile and holds a ton meat for its size. Killer video keep em coming

Awesome vid. Bought my Bronco a month ago for less than two bills @ WalMart. Great smoker and I plan on smoking a turkey (brined in buttermilk) on Wed morning for office party. Will set on rack instead of hanging (have not got the hang of hanging yet) Perfect timing...thanks for all the tips.
Amazing cook bro , turkey came out looking awesome ! I was considering smoking my turkey on my kamado Joe's do to the cold Wisconsin weather but after seeing your video I'm hanging my turkey on the bronco as well just hope it can maintain temps well in the cold

Certainly agree with you on the Okie Joe, Meat. Built like a tank, extremely simple concept and cooks anything amazingly. By far my favorite smoker now. I've archived this recipe and will be trying it soon.
@@meatcranium4280 btw, I'm with ya on the meat washing thing. I've seen meat packers and butchers handle meat. It's a darn good idea to wash the meat before you cook it.
I used your recipe and made something very similar for Thanksgiving in my Oklahoma Joe Bronco. It turned out fantastic and I had nothing but great reviews. Thank you!
Dang! Chris ...... that Turkey has and amazing color looks moist and I'm sure it tasted delicious. Sorry brother I couldn't catch the live Premiere had some long working hours last week. Do have a wonderful week you and your family.

Great job . Quite inspirational. I am a new owner of one of these smokers and have a lot to learn. Tell me why you preferred to hang the turkey instead of letting it rest on the grate.
Not with the brine but I'm glad u showed your set up as I was lacking a creative mind several weeks ago when I used my bronco to do a turkey..i ended up quartering it..im disappointed I didn't think of this..is a chicken big enough to utilize this type of hanging?
Welcome back Meathead ! 16.75 ounce turkey is awful small.....lol ! I had an issue with my Inkbird one day too, I just had to restart my phone to connect. Not the Inkbirds fault . Beautiful looking bird ! Glad to see you back ! Hope you had a great vacation! Cheers bro !

Louis at R shack BBQ OOOOO!! GREAT QUESTION!!🤔 I would say Brined, but by just a Smidge. Brined seems to keep the meat a little bit more Moist. Thanks for the support and watching Brother.
I have Bronco and I'm going to smoke my first turkey this year. I'm also smoking the ham on the Longhorn. I'm trying to figure out with all the seasonings I have in my cabinet which would be best to use for turkey. I'm going to use the creation you did on mine but again the difference is seasoning. Hope I pick a good one. Any suggestions on a seasonings that can be used? I could provide a rundown of what I have. Thank you.
A couple suggestions. The ENTIRE turkey needs to be submerged. 5 or 10 gal bucket with a weight on top works best to keep the bird fully submerged. I have never seen a seasoned brine with veg and or citrus rine that did not need to be heated first to get the flavors to release as well as the sugars and salt to fully dissolve. Always bring those kind of brines to a boil. Then cool and use.
Jared McIntosh I don’t think so, it would be tight. You could always hang it Spatchcocked. You may need to bend it. Thanks for the support and watching
What brand lump charcoal did you use? I plan on doing this for turkey day and a traditional oven roasted or maybe deep fried...who am I kidding I’ll likely do all three, just smaller ones. I love food holidays in case you couldn’t tell.

@@meatcranium4280 Thanks for the objective reply brother. I already have a Weber kettle, a 22" WSM and both BHCs so I'm trying to limit myself to that, but I have an addictive need to collect! Looks like BHC the company may be down for the count so the Bronco is looking appealing
I am impressed with the cook and the Turkey looks amazing. But you almost lost me at the liquid smoke in the brine , I would think the Oklahoma Joe should give it the smoke flavor.
I have that same smoker. Do you ever have problems with the air flow? Sometimes when I keep it in a smoke range, its shoots up to the bbq range. Even with the damper set on 2 or 3. What should I do?
Loyalty Team Grilling If you are going off the temp probe on the unit... DONT!!! I found it to be very erratic. I would use a reliable secondary probe to monitor temps. Now, what I do is keep the top wide open on the #4, the adjust from the intake valve. Adjustments may be 15-20 delayed after moving to a different setting. If you go 50 degrees past your target don’t sweat it, it won’t hurt nothing, just close the intake damper down. Sometimes I will close the top a little too. I hope this helps. Thanks for the support and watching Brother.
Also, call charbroil and they will send you a replacement intake tube free of charge. There was a gap where the two pipes connect on several units (mine included). Google smoky Joe bronco problem.

Interesting question. It adds a depth of flavor to the brine and compliments the overall taste. You don’t necessarily taste the smokiness, however it does enhance the other elements. I’m brining it this year the same way but I’m cooking it in the Charbroil Big Easy.
Jeremy Jeremy Yeah higher temps. You are at the mercy of the Turkey. Too high a temp, you can scorch the outside. I kept in the 300’s and relax. Thanks for the support and watching Brother.
The OJ Bronco is great. Heavy duty thick gauge steel with lid gasket . Can smoke or grill. Lots of meat hanging accessories. $184 on clearance sale Jan 2020 at Walmart. Normally $300. Downside, their installed thermometer did not function properly. Don't use it anyway.

3 bananas, peeled and frozen. 1-11/2 cups cold milk. Cut two bananas into pieces, blend with the milk. Add the 3rd banana if not thick enough. GREAT cheap healthy banana milkshake. Options: 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (I always use it); 1-2 tbsp peanut butter; mango, 5-6 strawberries with 1/2 tsp sugar
I do a meal replacement shake in the morning, I add 2 tbs of cinnamon, 2 eggs, cold brew coffee, 2 Tbs of Honey, ice, Almond milk, and of course 2 scoops of my meal replacement powder. At night before bed I have a banana sliced up with cinnamon.

Ralphie has been asking me to let him make a turkey
Great video, Flobroski! I think you have a Dr. Pepper food fetish!
Cooking with Kory LOL. I think you may be correct. 🤔. Thanks for the support and watching Brother
I am hungry now.
Just picked up one at Walmart for $130
Alec Barnes WOW!! I’m jealous. I got mine when they first come out for $300. OOF!! However it is amazing and fun to use. Thanks for the support and watching Brother.
Alec Barnes That’s cheap, Walmart here has them for $184.
My Walmart doesn't carry it only Lowes for $300
@@jamescatron6572 Same here brother
I just checked their website and I don't see it listed that they carry it.

Dutch is doing a 16 lb for Thanksgiving. Gobble, gobble
Nice!! We may not be doing Thanksgiving this year.
@@meatcranium4280 I am so sorry. No good position yet? We are struggling like crazy here. Biden has destroyed the mortgage business, but I am still thankful for what I have. My son lives with us, and we are all in it together trying to survive until a new administration. Sorry if you're a Biden supporter.
Turkey is $3.75 a pound here. You do the math.

Cooked it too High. 225 ....6.75/7.15hrs
Hell raiser turkey
3 bananas, peeled and frozen. 1-11/2 cups cold milk. Cut two bananas into pieces, blend with the milk. Add the 3rd banana if not thick enough. GREAT cheap healthy banana milkshake. Options: 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (I always use it); 1-2 tbsp peanut butter; mango, 5-6 strawberries with 1/2 tsp sugar
I do a meal replacement shake in the morning, I add 2 tbs of cinnamon, 2 eggs, cold brew coffee, 2 Tbs of Honey, ice, Almond milk, and of course 2 scoops of my meal replacement powder. At night before bed I have a banana sliced up with cinnamon.
@@meatcranium4280 Sounds like yours is more nutricious. Mine is simple and cheap. I love bananas and they cost 8 cents here
Liquid smoke in your brine for a smoked Turkey??!!
Come on man.
C’mon man what! Have you done it?! No? Then do it and get back with me. You will change your mind.
Makes no sense whatsoever to rinse the brine off. Lol if you set it in there for 48 hours lol.
