Smoked Turkey - delicious brined and smoked soft juicy and tender. Just the glazing was a bit too sugary and it caramalized a bit too much - but didnt spoil the bird at all.

2 packs apple juice
Few spoons SPOGS - (Salt, Pepper, Garlic, Onion , Spices n herbs)
1 spoon Italian seasoning
½ spoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
5 garlic cloves – crushed
2 spoons sugar

Make brine and add turkey. Leave for 24-48 hours in fridge – shake now and again. Dry the bird and apply coating of oil and some BBQ spice or SPOGS.

Stuff the cavity with a variety of whatever – as above.

Prepare BBQ smoker for indirect cooking at 300-350°F (145-175°C) using apple or any fruit wood for smoke flavour.

Add bird and close BBQ. Baste every 30 min. Rotisserie is a good option too. Place a drip tray underneath with some water to catch the drippings. Use this for the gravy. Place giblets in the drip tray as well after about 1 hour. Remove when ready as chef’s snacks!!

Cook until internal temperature reaches Breast 165°F (74°C) and dark meat (legs and thighs) 175°F (80°C) if it gets too dark loosely cover with foil.

Remove the turkey from the pit and rest for 10-15 minutes before carving.
