How To make Smoked Barbequed Turkey
Ingredients
1
each
turkey, 8-10 lbs
1/2
cup
salt
1/2
cup
sugar
4
cup
apple juice
1
tablespoon
rosemary
1
tablespoon
basil
1
honey, for basting
Directions:
Place turkey in brine for 8-12 hours. Remove from brine. Rinse well and air dry. Place turkey in the smoker with both upper and lower cavities open to expose the insides to smoke. Smoke 3-3 1/2 hours or longer being careful not to dry bird out.
Remove turkey from the smoker and cook in your favorite way. If you desire more smoke flavor, simply increase smoking time and the amount of fuel used.
Reduce your cooking time by 10% for each hour in the smoker (up to 40%).
If you are using a smoker/barbeque/roaster type of barbeque, switch modes to roast mode and baste the turkey with honey during the roasting time.

WHAT HEATH USED:
• Heath Riles BBQ Chicken Injection and Brine
• Heath Riles BBQ Garlic Jalapeno Rub
• Heath Riles BBQ Mixing Shaker Bottle
• Duck Fat Spray
• Plastic Injection Needle
• Royal Oak Charcoal Pellets
• Large Aluminum Sheet Pan
• Thermoworks Chef Alarm
• Thermoworks Thermapen One
• Large Grilling Spatula
• Benchmade Meatcrafter Knife
INGREDIENTS:
• 15lb Turkey
• Heath Riles BBQ Garlic Jalapeno Rub
• Heath Riles BBQ Chicken Injection and Brine
• Duck Fat Spray
DIRECTIONS:
1. Make sure your turkey is properly thawed. We let our turkey thaw for 5 days. The USDA recommends 1 day for every 4-5 pounds of turkey.
2. Get your grill up to 300º.
3. Remove giblets and neck from your turkey.
4. Mix 1/4 cup of Heath Riles BBQ Chicken and Injection and Brine in a shaker bottle with 16oz of water. Shake well.
5. Inject in a grid pattern throughout the breasts. You may not use all 16oz of your mixture, depending on the size of your turkey.
6. Pat your turkey dry once you're done injecting.
7. Tuck the wings and spray both sides of your turkey with Duck Fat Spray or whichever binder you prefer.
8. Season both sides of your turkey with a medium-coat Heath Riles BBQ Garlic Jalapeno Rub.
9. Place your turkey on the bottom rack of your smoker.
10. After an hour and a half, spray your turkey with Duck Fat Spray.
11. After you've sprayed your turkey, place a Chef's Alarm in your turkey and set it for 160º. It was reading 136º when we put our probe in our turkey.
12. Once our bird hit 164º, we pulled our probe out of our turkey and spot-checked it with our Thermapen One. We were hitting 170-185º in some parts, so I knew this bird was done. Pull it off your grill.
13. Let your turkey rest for at least 30 minutes before slicing.

For this BBQ Turkey, it's not about those traditional Thanksgiving Flavors... it's all about creating juicy, flavorful, delicious BBQ pulled turkey. Then I make a white BBQ sauce to serve alongside.
This is one turkey recipe that’s great year round. I brine a whole turkey for 48 hrs in my bird brine combined with Killer Hogs The BBQ Rub - and apple juice. After a 2 day soak the skin is air dried for an hour in the refrigerator then I stuff the cavity with citrus fruit and green apples. The skin gets a light coating of peanut oil and dusted with Killer Hogs The BBQ Rub. It’s a lot like smoking a whole chicken but on a much larger scale!
You can smoke the turkey on any pit, but my Traeger makes a beautiful bird; so I fired it up running at 300°F with apple pellets for smoke flavor.
Once the Traeger was ready, the bird goes right on the center rack. It takes about 3 1/2 hours for a turkey this size to smoke, so kick back and enjoy the process. After an hour I start basting the outside with melted butter, and I start monitoring the internal temperature. For this I use a Themoworks DOT meat probe into the thickest part of the breast.
First the Thermoworks DOT is set for 155 and when the temp alarm goes off its time to glaze the turkey. Use a silicone brush and drizzle the sauce over the skin without touching the turkey too much. Close the lid and keep cooking until the internal reaches 165°F in the breast. It should take about 30 minutes to get there.
The turkey is done at this point but needs to rest for at least 15 minutes before carving. To serve it I like to pull the whole bird. Fist I remove the legs, carve off the breast and finally the thighs and wings. Use a pari of cotton gloves underneath nitrile gloves and pull the meat apart by hand just like pulled pork. You’ll end up with about 4-5lbs of pulled meat.
I serve it with my version of Malcom's White BBQ Sauce buy it’s great with any bbq sauce. It goes great with pulled pork as another option and it gives you an opportunity to cook turkey year round!
Malcom’s White BBQ Sauce Recipe:
- 2 cups Mayo
- ½ cup Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon Course Ground Black Pepper
- 1 Tablespoon Granulated Garlic
- 1 Tablespoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Horseradish (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- ½ teaspoon Ground Cayenne Pepper
- Juice from 2 Lemons
Whisk the ingredients in a large bowl and store in the refrigerator for a few hours before serving.

BBQ Turkey Recipe | How to BBQ A Turkey
How to BBQ a Turkey! In this video you will learn how to BBQ a turkey on the grill. *****TO SEE OUR BBQ ACCESSORY GUIDE CLICK HERE:
The night before the cook, you will need to make a a salt water brine and allow it to sit in the fridge for 12 hours. This will help make the turkey more juicy as well as add some extra flavours.
On the day of the cook before you put the bird on the bbq, place some chopped celery and onions on a baking sheet and cover with chicken stock. Once this is done place the turkey breast down with a little bit of oil and place on the bbq for indirect cooking at 325 degrees. After one hour flip the turkey over so that it is breast up for another 2 hours basting halfway through.
The turkey will be when the internal temp is 165 degrees (3 hours +/- for our 6.5kg turkey). Once it is cooked remove from the grill and let it rest for at least 20 minutes.
lastly, you will want to carve it and enjoy a great feast with good friends!
