RV Holiday Cooking: Easy Smoked Turkey and Thanksgiving Meal

Can you cook a complete holiday meal from your RV? We wanted to find out, so we put it to the test. In this video, we show you not only that yes you can cook a full holiday meal from your RV... but it's also super simple! Join us as we smoke a turkey, and cook up a few holiday sides including green bean casserole and sweet potatoes. Our goal here was to keep everything as easy as possible. And it all turned out great! If you'd like more information on what we did here, check out our website: rvtexasyall.com/cooking/pelle...
We continue to be super impressed with how easy it is to make great food with our Green Mountain Grills Davy Crockett Pellet Grill. This little portable grill has become one of our most appreciated cooking appliances.

It would be fun to watch anyone doing cooking videos showing how they actually fuck up, burn this etc. Everything always comes out perfect

I know this is an older video but it is turkey season. I purchased a GMG Davy Crockett last year and I am going to give this smoked turkey instructional a try! Thanks Tom and Stacie! Bring on more of the cooking videos.

Try to spatchcock the Turkey if it will fit and cook it at 375. Comes out great. I don’t have a GMG but I have a full size Rec Teq. Pellet grills make everything taste great without the heavy smoke. They make great beef jerky also. I enjoy your channel.

Holy geez, every time you cook something on that grill it makes my friggin' mouth water. I love it. If you ever get to San Diego, I'm gonna have to request that you break out that grill.

As I’ve listened to several of your videos over the last few days, I’ve come to realize that Stacy has a professional speaking voice and cadence. I don’t know what you did professionally but if it didn’t include public speaking you may have missed your calling. 😂 I’ve been binge watching your videos and I’m learning so much before me and Regina have even bought our first RV. Thanks so much Tom and Stacy for sharing your lives and experiences with everyone. I’m loving the green mountain smoker videos. As a fellow Texan, having a good smoker around the RV camp is an absolute necessity along with plenty of televisions for football games. At a boy Tom! Your definitely on to something there! 😃

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks for binge watching our videos Charlie! We're so glad that you and Regina are enjoying them. Hope to see y'all out at a campground one of these days!

The meal looks great! I’ll bet the turkey was even better tasting when you had leftovers. I’m looking forward to using our Big Green Egg for cooking/smoking our turkey at Thanksgiving. Can’t wait to make turkey hash with some leftovers, too. (Just fried potatoes and onions and small pieces of leftover turkey...yum!) I’m glad you guys are enjoying your smoker. Happy eating!😃👍

It was really good as leftovers Gail. We still have some. Might just need to make some of that turkey hash!

Just ran across your channel. I’ve had the GM DCG for a while and love it. Next time you cook a turkey or chicken, try spatchcock. That’s the only way were smoke poultry now.

Great idea John. Thanks!

[@dbmurray0924]

Great video. I purchased the Davie Crocket when you made your first review. Now with the cooler temps in Texas I purchased the insulated blanket so that I will not use more pellets.

Yes, we still love it. It has been a great addition to our outdoor kitchen. It is so easy to cook on and we have always been happy with the food that comes from it.

Thanks Norman! We do have leftovers... that’s the best part!

[@annamaybeekman5152]

And Thanksgiving is just ariund the corner.I can't wait....In my lil travel trailer I have a big 25 lb. Electric roaster That I roast my turkey all day.. And the day before I make chunky Homemade cranberry sauce. My secret ingredient......I chop very finely a jalapeno ribs seeds and all and throw it in with the cranberries to cook. Nobody ever knows they are in there. You eat a bite of cranberry sauce and when you swallow you get a burst of heat....I love it

[@rvamericayall]

That sounds awesome Annamay! Would you mind sharing your cranberry recipe with us? :)

[@annamaybeekman5152]

You follow the recipe on the bag of fresh cranberries and chop very small 1 jalapeno and throw it in with the fresh cranberries being cooked that is all...follow the recipe and chill. It is such an unexpected treat. :). Every year I end up making at least 3 bags of fresh cranberry sauce with a jalepeno to eat with all my meals through the holiday season....yummy

[@1RodeoMom]

Your green been casserole recipe is very close to mine, I like home cream of mushroom for ours next time I will add a couple of drops of w'shire also. Smoked turkey there is nothing better. Wish my husband like to smoke meats. Wow beautiful turkey! Happy Thanksgiving! PS What flavor of wood chips did you use for your turkey? Mesquite would have been yummy.

[@rvamericayall]

We would love to have a good homemade mushroom soup recipe. We used this Texas Blend: amzn.to/31Fek5O

Where The Trail Leads - WTTL RV No husband here so I just bought my GMG Davy Crockett and started grilling and smoking by myself. It’s amazingly easy!

[@leann4925]

Gosh it must have gotten cold where your at. Well it got cold here also. Meal surely looked great to me. How long did you leave the sweet potatoes in the Microwave. I usually boil mine but looks easier in the Microwave. Hope your doing well and tell Kay Hi! Love y'all

[@rvamericayall]

Thanks Leann! We microwaved the sweet potatoes for 12 minutes. If you're interested, we put more details and adjustments we might make in the future on our website: rvtexasyall.com/cooking/pellet-grill/smoked-turkey-holiday-meal

[@chasehoyt8546]

Too funny. Wife just bought a turkey home today and asked me to try it in our GMG Davy crockett. It's a 14 pounder. I'll let you know by if it fits EDIT smoked it at 225° for 6 hours that's when I hit inner temp. When I do it again I'll probably smoke it at a higher temperate. I had it in a foil pan so I wouldn't have much cleanup. It produced a lot of juice! Turkey turned out great but skin was rubbery because I smoked at a low temperature I think. I'll definitely do it again. That's a lot of meat!

[@rvamericayall]

Awesome Chase! We look forward to hearing how a 14 pounder works out. Thanks

Did you figure out an ideal cooking temp to keep things juicy but also get the skin crispy?

Tom, great looking turkey! How long did it take to cook?

Thanks! It only took about 2 hours and 45 minutes.

[@myrealname349]

Would you mind giving me a measurement of how tall the grill would be from the bottom of the feet to the top of the hinges(imagine taking the folding legs completely off). I am trying to figure out if this will clear through a cargo door on my RV. I appreciate any help.

[@LivingTheGoodLifeRving]

What's the cleanup process like on the smoker?

[@rvamericayall]

Very easy. We wipe off the racks and take the drip pan out to clean it. You can also wrap the drip pan in foil to make clean up a little easier.

[@xmaxxbashing2677]

Was wondering if I'm tailgating and got the Davy Crockett hooked up to my truck battery does it drain battery fast?

[@rvamericayall]

Great question Brad. We've never run it from a battery, so we can't speak from experience on this. I guess it would depend, at least in part, on the age and condition of your battery, and how long you are cooking. Green Mountain Grill built this model for tailgating, so it comes with a 12volt plug. They say the fan uses about 0.5 amps. Here's their spec page that has more power info... greenmountaingrills.com/products/grills/prime-wifi/davy-crockett-pellet-grill-wifi/

[@marrdrocertifiedprofession3715]

I have a 12 lbr we are going to do on our Davy Crockett. I noticed tin foil under the smoker. Do you get drips? So far I haven't.

[@rvamericayall]

Every now and then a little bit of condensation will drip out from around the lid. It’s never much and it only happens on longer cooks. We put the foil down as precaution just in case.

[@WILDEBILL308]

Looks good, where are you camped? I could drop by and give an "unbiased" taste test.

Pellet grills require a lot of maintenance more work than benefit in my opinion. How do you clean your pellet grill on the road? Any video on that?

We haven't done a video on it. But we have a small shop vac that we use to vacuum out the ash. And we scrub the grill just like any other.
