I bet Stan Weber grilled his turkey on his Traeger grill. He has a hard on for those grills.

I smoke on a big green egg (great smoker). Today I smoked a 14.5 lb turkey at about 250 for 5 hours. Smoked with hickory wood today. Yesterday I did ribs for about 3 hours at 220 with apple wood chips. Man it was good.

I agree, they are a good grill. But have you ever heard him go on about them?? It is truly something to behold.

Had a turkey that was marinated all night in a trash bag with 2 gallons of water, 1 cup of salt, one cup of brown sugar, sliced oranges and lemons and various other herbs and spices.

It was fantastic.

Lots of fun, pretty hard to screw up most stuff.  Egg is a good one.  I'm looking for a new one though haven't smoked in a year.  Used to do Ribs, chicken alot.

that, uh, sounds like an oven.

It's really nothing like an oven baked turkey.  The texture/moistness, is exactly like a fried turkey.
