You have a really nice bark on that. Nice and dark. Odd that you had that one strip that didn't get the cure into it. We're you flipping it twice a day? I haven't seen that on any of mine yet, but have seen it a couple of times on the forum.
Would you make it again? It takes a bit of time, but to me it is well worth the effort. Especially of you chill it now and slice it for lunches. It also reheats really well with a sous vide. I package my sliced stuff up into meal size bags. Great cold or reheated.

It looks great. Ever do a full turkey? I was thinking of a smoked bird for Christmas.

I haven't yet. I have used my oil-less propane fryer and cooked a couple that way in the past. I didn't have any cover for cooking during the rainy season until this year.
I am debating doing a whole bird for Thanksgiving and then whether I want to do it on the Traeger or the Kamado. I may opt for the Kamado because I can cook at 350°F the whole time and wind up with more smoke flavor than cooking low and slow for a couple hours on the Traeger and then cranking it up to crisp the skin

Ok you got me…. I had to go out of town for work on day 6-7 (unexpectedly). It only got flipped before I left and after I got back. I will definitely make it again, it’s delicious.

Hard to believe that would make a difference, but seems to be the cause for that in most cases. When I do bacon, I flip twice a day as well.
Yours does have a nice cure color to it as well as that nice bark. Nice to hear it was good enough to make again at some point

That seems like that would be the fastest, and easiest to get an even cook.

Yes,it works great. I did use the Traeger turkey brine but any brine would work, if you go with a brine.

I’m also planning a smoked Christmas Turkey. I think I’m going to do a practice one in October or November. The Meat Church and Traeger websites have some recipes. I don’t know which one to try yet.

I’m trying to locate a fresh or frozen Turkey first. The local grocery stores in my area are not carrying any at the moment. It’s hard to find.
