Thanksgiving ?.

[exarmysgt]

I've only done briskets to this point since getting my grill a year ago. Still would consider myself a novice. I'm wanting to cook a turkey for Thanksgiving. Anyone have a recipe that would include how to prep one? I saw on a thread search where someone did an 8# breast. I'd be fine with that but haven't found any that big uncooked, just whole turkeys. Any feedback or tips is appreciated.

As for a turkey in your pellet grill, here are the steps I took when I did mine. I'll be following the same this year as well.

Where do I find a turkey breast that size? Those typically available at the grocery store? I only see that size in the deli. Ones I saw to cook were only about 3 pounds. Thanks in advance.

Yes, a grocery store. I bought mine from Kroger if I'm not mistaken.

How many hours did it take typically per pound for the turkey?

Hey Mike, am I supposed to remove the skin?
