Fresh out the fridge and seasoned
A little over halfway through
Done
That Thang was so juicy, I shoulda put a towel down
but seriously the juices ran off the cutting board on to the table and dripped to the floor
.
Just more shyt for me to clean up, but honestly a whole bird and a cook time of maybe 1 and a half hours ain't bad.
I've been doing 5-6 lb birds because I'm preparing to do a whole turkey and it's pretty fool proof.
@Maddmike that thing is nice. I don't have a preference. For wood burning or charcoal smokers it's basically about how you use it. One of my boys had the tree in his backyard cut down and he has an old barrel smoker kind of looks like this
But there's no brand on it and it's made better. Its old as hell and he never used it. I split some of the lumber and we had an impromptu cookout. Just all wood no charcoal, and meat
he had plenty of real estate on it so we did burger brats, chicken, his wife did some bacon wrapped jalapeños, bacon wrapped aparagus...she was just throwin shyt on it by the end of the day. They don't grill so they didn't think their old smoker that has been behind the shed since Bush was in office even worked and since they don't grill they didn't know shyt about throwin real wood on it and cooking.
