Smoked Turkey On A Pit Boss Pellet Smoker

If you want to learn how to cook a smoked a turkey on your Pit Boss pellet smoker, or any pellet smoker for that matter, then you are going to want watch this video! In this video I will be cooking an approximately 14lb turkey on my Pit Boss Pellet smoker. Typically I would brine my turkey, but I didn't have the time, nor the supplies. So, we just went with a good old fashioned seasoned and injected smoked turkey. Be sure to check out the products I used below, some of which include great discount codes!

Just wanted to say, I used your method for my Thanksgiving turkey. I've never cooked a turkey before. We had about 25 at our family gathering. And even the few that don't eat turkey said it was the best they had ever had. Thank you for sharing. Wade R.

[@AshKickinBBQ]

Hi Wade, thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment, I really appreciate that! I am so glad to hear your turkey was awesome! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

2023, I'm gunna use my new Z Grill my father in law bought me! Great video

[@djshorty_64]

Just made this today. Didnt want to do all the work on a brine. Did this recipe to the exact! First time using a smoker too. Pitboss combo smoker. One of thee best turkeys I've had!! TY for this recipe.

[@earhornjones]

Hi, Darin. Thanks for the video! I smoked a 14 pound turkey on my Pit Boss last night using these directions. The only changes that I made to your procedure were that I used a locally available poultry rub, and I tossed a quartered lemon and some garlic cloves, along with a stick of butter into the cavity. It took just under three hours to cook, and turned out amazing! It was the first time I've ever smoked a turkey, and it was definitely the juiciest, tastiest turkey we've ever made in this household. Thanks, again!

[@WillBarrzz]

Ok so I don't recommend cooking turkey this way. I did this for Thanksgiving for the first time. Now apparently I'm the one that's gotta cook another one for x-mas.

[@ghilliebacca7845]

Same lmao

[@AshKickinBBQ]

Lol, you had me going in the first half, not gonna lie

[@tadeckel5053]

We used to do alot of commercial smoking at the meat market our family owned. On chicken and turkey used to mix orange juice, lawry salt, lemon pepper, and small amount liquid smoke and soy sauce. Make a great injection. Nice video.

[@AshKickinBBQ]

Hey Tad, that sounds delicious thanks so much for sharing! I might give that a try!

[@chuckmarkham9303]

Done this so many times with 20+ lb turkeys since seeing this video!! So easy and tender and juicy every time without brining!!! Great video!! Thanks!

Love it!!

Bout how long? 3-4 hours?

[@FireTurtle75.]

Looks fantastic! I'm the admin from Pit Boss Grills & Pellet Smokers that you messaged earlier today. Hopefully this will help some folks know that they don't have to brine a bird before they smoke it. It produces great results, but it's not the only way to do it. I think a lot of people get hung up on brining one & figuring out how to have the space to keep one refrigerated while it's soaking. Injecting works great too. All in all it's a great video!

[@FireTurtle75.]

I just realized when I clicked on your IG link, that I was already following you on IG. LOL

[@AshKickinBBQ]

Haha now that’s funny! I hit ya with a follow back this morning! Thanks so much for the kind words brother! I think a lot of people get hung up on brining well, and since most turkeys are in a 5-9% solution these days, I don’t really find it necessary as I would with a fresh bird! Thanks again for letting me drop this video in the group, and for watching! Truly appreciate it brother 🙏🏼

[@shanefulner]

I've been doing mine like this for years and they always come out tender I've always had stick burners just picked up a pit boss Austin xl and have yet to try one on the pit Boss but after seeing this video I don't think I'll be disappointed

Hey there. Thanks for the video. This year will be my first Thanksgiving turkey responsibility and I’m going with your instructions. No pressure right? Jk, it’ll be great! One question…if there had been a brine, would you have rinsed it beforehand and/or just left it on and picked up right at the beginning of the video?

Awesome go to video for first time turkey smokers! Didn't want to do a brine but the Tony "C"'s is an awesome alternative. Funny thing though, I looked for the injectable seasoning and my local store had it in the seafood section....still trying to figure that one out! I put mine on about a half hour ago and have my spray butter ready to go. Fingers crossed there are no user errors and it comes out even half as good as yours looks! Can't wait to go through your other videos for more tips!

[@trinaaverbeck9873]

Going to be doing a test turkey before thanksgiving. Did you use a smoking tube? And, would a temp at 300 deg. be good? Did your brisket the other day and it turned out great!

[@AshKickinBBQ]

I personally don’t think you need a smoke tube for poultry. It absorbs smoke really really will and is easy to overdo it. 300° would be just fine! Glad you enjoyed the brisket! I’ll have some new turkey videos coming soon 😀

[@a344102]

What temp did you pull it off at? Did you wrap it or anything for your 30 min rest?

[@AshKickinBBQ]

I called it at about 160-168° depending where I probed. Next time I’d pull a little lower and let it come up while resting. It was still juicy, but I think it could’ve been even better. I just loosely covered it with foil for the rest as to not steam the skin.

[@annasaiz-dz9my]

Trying it today!! So excited!

[@felixramirez3774]

Never saw the ending Temps. Are the white and dark meat Temps differ? Smoking my 1ss turkey on Thanksgiving.....tukes

[@AshKickinBBQ]

Yes they are different. 165° is the recommended for whit meat, and dark is best at 175-185°. That being said, I wouldn’t overlook my white meat to get my dark meat to those temps. Just focus on your white meat and you should be good

[@pantryonlyrecipes]

What kind of pellets do you recommend for poultry? I have a vertical smoker. I saw you used cherry in the video. I found a good deal on fruit blend hardwood, the pitboss brand. Would that be a good idea for pork and turkey or chicken?

[@AshKickinBBQ]

Any good fruit pellet would be suitable. Poultry is a sponge for smoke and absorbs it very well!

Glad to hear the foods turned out good brother! I typically pull mine at 161° in the thickest part of the breast, but for food safety purposes ideal is 165°. I try to compensate for that carryover cooking. That being said, I’ve pulled birds at 165° and they’ve still been very good.
