    I’ve used a similar preparation method for many years when deep frying my turkeys. Last year I tried it in my pellet smoker and this year I did 2 turkeys in my offset and used the new thing I learned from this video. I melted butter and poured over the breast meat on the serving plate. A great tip. Thank you. Also I want one if those aprons. Please let us know when they are available. Thanks.

    This is interesting...I actually like to do big turkeys, so what I do is basically the same thing you do, but use a rub with more paprika maybe, inject with butter, THEN put that bird in a shallow pan of chicken broth with a couple of table spoons of kosher salt, then smoke it (on a stick burner), then baste it every 30 mins...comes out tender AF. The skin wont be crispy though, I think I'll try taking it out of the pan for an hour next time to see if that crisps it up.

    Jeremy, I agree wholeheartedly about Kerrygold butter. I did a blind taste test of it, Plugra (US),President (France), and Lurpak (Denmark) and Kerrygold was a slight winner on taste but half the cost. The fat content is 84% (US normal butter is only 80%), but that extra 4% make a big difference as well as the grass fed milk. Around where I'm from there are a lot of Amish Yoders.

  • @ericsilver5603
    @ericsilver5603 Před 4 lety +1

    One reason that it sliced so easily was that you lived it with the grain. While that does make it easier to slice, the meat is a bit tougher, and can be stringy. Chefs know to slice the meat against the grain. This is done by carving the breast away from the turkey, and then slicing it crosswise. Try it-you’ll be amazed at the difference

    Great video. I wish you could do a video on why you can’t get the smoke flavor from a pellet smoker that you can from a stick burner. That’s been huge question among owners and pit masters.

    • @Nick-ih5em
      @Nick-ih5em Před 4 lety +1

      I think it's because the fan in traegers and other pellet grills blows the smoke after pellets are lit and it goes into the cooking area and strait out the stack. Just blows it through too fast. I know you weren't asking me but that is my thought.

    • @SGB_72
      @SGB_72 Před 4 lety

      Nick Blevins I’ve heard that reason also. Someone else told me that it’s because the pellets burn at full combustion so the don’t generate enough smoke to do the job. They are a source of heat for the grills. Just have heard so many things, want someone to get to the bottom of it.😊

    Just a PSA but you can make a great broth with the Turkey necks for your mashed potatoes and gravy. I know he’s just going for the bird in this video but just fyi.

      @coreyroberts2831 Před 4 lety +2

      Not sure about Jeremy's bird but I try to stay around 15 - 16 lbs. when I smoke mine. If you go to big it wont cook evenly and you will end up with legs, thighs that are way over done while waiting for 165 in the breast. It will also get to much smoke which leads to that nasty, bitter taste. Hope this helped. I also spatchcock mine which reduces the cooking time and a more even heat distribution.
