Title: 2 stick turkey
Post by: TMB on October 17, 2012, 10:49:15 PM
Melt 2 sticks of butter and 2 Tbs of rub (I used Teesquares WOW rub) Way Out West Trail Dust
Let the rub and butter simmer for a few mins then turn off the heat. In the mean time wash and dry the turkey real good.
Make sure you get all the moister off so the skin crisp up real nice.

Next use an injector to inject the butter and rub under the skin and deep into the meat. Keep back about 1/3 so you can brush on skin

Using a Big Easy or SRG on high set the turkey in lid/top down or temp set to high. Once the IT hits around 130 to 135 open the lid/top and let it finish
to 165 IT. 
Let the turkey "rest" in the chamber for 15 min and your ready to serve one of the best turkeys out there

Ohhh, I'm betting that bird is mighty juicy with that butter injected in it.  That skin sure looks nice and crispy.


Your 2 stick turkey gets 2 buttery thumbs up from me!  :D

LOL, don't tel obama  ;)

Really, adding butter kicks up the flavor and moister just remember to use a good rub in the melted butter and by all means try T's Way Out West  Trail Dust.  This stuff is really good and I'm not just saying that.  Pam & IR2dum will tell you  ;)

assuming you need to let the butter cool quite a bit before injecting, did you inject and season night before or right before cooking?

One of my best friends is a cardiac surgeon and he loves this recipe.  He doesn't eat it but he's never happier than when his prospective patients do.

If Tommy cooks it in an SRG - you can bet it will be great. He knows that cooker...

Thanks,  Tim that means a lot to me to know folks like you like what I do in an SRG or any of my infrared cookers.

Really looking forward to my next challenge in the infrared world!   I hope to have it posted soon

What lb was the bird and how long did it take? will be trying this for sure.

Also, how often did you need to add wood to the smoker box to keep the smoke going?

Tommy, that's a beautiful turkey. Are you counting the turkey butt in your total of butts cooked in the SRG? Do turkeys even have butts?
