Completed a very successful Turkey cook on my Ol' KK. Bought 18# Fresh Butterball Turkey from Costco Brined it for 4 days Removed from Brine and patted dry and placed in refergerator for 24 hours to dry the skin out. (Next time I think I would do only 12 - 15 hours as the skin was a little too tough) Injected the breasts with a butter seasoning mix Rubbed the skin with the same butter mixture (Next time I will use Grape Seed Oil to prevent the dark browning) Cranked up the KK and let it settle in on 325 degrees for about 3 hours in advance. Added some Applewood chunks, put the deflector stone in place with an aluminium pan to catch the juices on top. Added the top grate, set turkey on grate, inserted 2 temp probes (1 in each breast) Let her go for approximately 3hrs 45 min. The breast temp was 150 when I pulled it. Let the turkey rest in a insulated cooler for about 30 min. The bird was beautiful to cut, lots of moisture even in the white meat. We served 8 folks and they raved..... Hell, we're still having leftovers and the white meat is still nice and moist and sooooo smokey flavorful. Try it you'll like it.
