Thanksgiving Smoked Turkey Recipe with our Weber Smokey Mountain Smoker
About Our Weber Smokey Mountain Smoker
Here are the specs:
The Weber 18 in. Smokey Mountain Cooker Smoker features a generous 481 sq. in. of cooking space across two plated-steel grill grates, enough room to smoke several slabs of ribs and a whole roast concurrently. This charcoal smoker has a built-in lid thermometer with a smoke-zone sweet-spot identifier between 200 and 275°F that makes it easy to monitor heat and regulate accordingly with air dampers and briquette adjustments. To keep foods moist and flavorful, a porcelain-enameled water pan is included for high-humidity slow-cooks that produce juicy, tender, professional-grade results every time.Cajun Smoked Turkey Recipe
This is the recipe for smoked turkey that my husband has made for Thanksgiving the past two years.
Seasoned with a spicy rub made with cayenne and smoked paprika, this Smoked Cajun Turkey needs at least 24 hours of brining. So, plan ahead. The recipe uses apple food for a wood-fired flavor, great for Thanksgiving, other holidays, or just a year-round treat.
It’s juicy and delicious!
