It was a 20 pounder, dry brined with salt for a little over 24 hours. It was moist a nice pink smoke ring. And the skin was crispy. It was not trussed and I wrapped the wings half way through cook (5) hours. Delicious!!!!!

Lol, the first level of briquettes was even better looking . I stacked them this way so they can handle all the drippings that come out of a turkey that size. Not one was laying flat. Thanks for noticing, it took some time

What’s the key to slicing breast while keeping skin attached. I always have a problem with keeping skin on top of each piece.
