Big 'ole T-Bird

BillyT

Hey oh great ones,
I am going to smoke a 29 lb turkey this Thanksgiving. A big frozen Butterball. To date the biggest I've smoked is a 15 pounder. It came out great! Are there any words of wisdom you can impart to me? Other than I'm crazy. I'm thinking you may have some experience you can share that can prevent a less than great result.
THANKS!

Billy T,[p]Wow. That's the biggest Turkey since my KC Chiefs tackling abilities on last Sunday. [p]Since it may take a long time to cook (29 lb X 20 minutes at 325 = 9 hours, 45 minutes), have you considered brining it to keep it moist?

astick,
Thanks for the suggestion. Being a butterball it should be pretty moist but I may go ahead and brine it anyway.
