If the bird isnt fresh You really dont need to brine because they already are enhanced.
I take the bird and rub it down with butter and but pats of butter under the skin and that also when a put my rub on under the skin.Put some inside the bird and also on the outside of the skin.

My cooker will be running at 225-250 all the way through the cook until like the last 30-45 minutes then I bump it up to 300-325 to crisp up the skin.
The turkeys are easy to do.They are real tastey.

Have a great holiday.

Can you show a close up of the bottom of this bad boy cooker. Do you load the charcoal from the top or do you have a door?
