Smoked Turkey Cooked On A Yoder YS 640

On this cook, I smoked up some Turkey on my Yoder YS640 pellet smoker. I cooked these turkey breast to 165° internal. The temperature on my Yoder was 275° and the total cook time was 3 hours on the small (6lbs) turkey breast and 3 hours 15 minutes on the larger (8lbs) turkey breast. The turkey was extremely juicy considering it wasn't brined. The rubs I used were Victory Lane BBQ Season Everything, Smokin Chicken rub and topped the breast off with Gold Dust at the end of the cook.

WOW! Joe, those breasts look fantastic. Moist, juice and great color on that skin. Excellent job.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Jimmy! These bad boys were so good! Thanks for watching buddy.👍🏼

[@GreenhornBBQbeer]

Nice color and texture buddy, liked that YS640!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Todd! The Yoder is a savage smoker!🤘

[@smalltownsmoker4331]

Great job Joe! Thank you for showing us how easy it is.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

You're very welcome buddy, thanks for watching.👍🏼

[@TheRealJoeyB]

Crazy, woke up this morning thing about smoking a turkey breast, yours looked delish...thx for sharing

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Morning Joey! Thanks for watching buddy!👍🏼

[@CookingWithCJ]

Amazing birdy parts right there joe! Want one of them Yoders too! I’ll have to ask Santa...

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks CJ! The Yoder is one heck of a smoker bro. Turkey was delicious. Thanks for watching amigo!👍🏼

[@Jetmech01]

After watching your video I did this flavor profile, on a whole spatchcocked turkey with my BGE. It was the best turkey I’ve ever done. I think Victory Lane Barbecue Rubs will be my go to rubs. Love your channel!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Very nice Jet, glad you enjoyed it. The Victory Lane rubs are really tasty and are my go to rubs. I I've never used the BGE but I know they're a very efficient smoker and they produce good BBQ. Thanks for watching.👍🏼

[@Crankinstien]

Thanks Joe. Doing this for thanksgiving

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Nice!👍🏼

Thanks Cobra! Thanks for watching.👍🏼

[@brittsbackyardbbqngrill]

Great looking Birds Joe... I'm like you I love Turkey. I cook Turkey breast several times a year. You did the right, on my screen I could see them juices run when you made that cut and those rubs gave a great color. Hell of a job my friend...

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Britt! I was debating on taking the skin off of one of the breast and I'm so glad I didn't. I think the skin is the reason why they were so juicy on the inside. Thanks for watching my friend.👍🏼

[@PicklesBBQandCooking]

Picture perfect smoked turkey Joe, it really came out beautiful. I may give this a try before Thanksgiving for a video, plus hey turkey leftovers are fantastic. Great job brother!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

[@thegalleryBBQ]

you've been teasing this long enough. lol Joe, I love the smaller birds(10lbs)or so. never had much luck with the bigger 17+lb birds, always dry. these look perfect, nice and juicy. great video as usual.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

These were perfect! The 8lb breast had lots of meat so that's the perfect size. The flavor was absolutely delicious buddy. Thanks for watching Tommy!👍🏼

[@Crankinstien]

Thanks Joe! Appreciate you bro!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Chris! Name is Joe. 😂👍🏼

[@chrisbrennan2208]

Great looking cook Joe. My family loves the smoked turkey breasts. Still working on them with the dark meat lol.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Chris! I don't think my daughter will ever like dark meat. 😂👍🏼

[@danielkates3898]

Looks great Joe. Do you have the Yoder diffuser plate in? How about the damper? Where is it positioned?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Daniel,.the defuser was in and the damper is always half way in. 👍

[@Just8Ate]

That Turkey looks juicy and delicious.. do you cook your Turkey this way every year????

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Yes I do. I've also cooked whole turkeys and spatchcocked them. I like the white meat so smoking just the breast is my favorite. Thanks for watching guys!👍🏼

[@northeastbeastlafoe628]

Awesome job i like that looks tasty thank for sharing

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you for watching! So good!🤘

[@liquidxan6698]

Keep up the grilling! Love these videos

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Nick!👍🏼

[@NoodleEnd]

Awesome! I’ve been thinking of buying YS640 but not quite sure where to get them here in Europe though. Cheers from Finland 🇫🇮

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Best smoker ever! Thanks for watching Project!👍🏼 Great to have you all the way from Finland.🤘

[@markmccaleb4038]

Joe, hope you don't mind but I think I'm going to copycat your smoked turkey for Thanksgiving. I've never smoked a turkey yet but my wife asked me to do one this year. Question, did you brine or inject these?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Howdy Mark! I didn't brine them at all. I think the trick is to not smoke them over 165. 👍🏼 Copy away my friend.

[@MrFlores78]

Great looking bird joe.what flavor pellets did you use. Thanks 🦃💥

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Hello Raul, I used B&B Mesquite pellets. 👍🏼 Thanks for watching.

[@Crankinstien]

Joe,I purchased some victory lane gold dust. Its amazing!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

The Gold Dust was the icing on the cake. It gave the Turkey a sweet savory flavor that was perfect.👍🏼

[@CookingwithKirby]

Good cook Joe, one of my biggest pet peeves is a dry turkey breast. That one was juicy.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Hey there Kirby! These suckers came so juicy! Thanks for watching bro!🤘

[@paulcooley515]

Looks amazing

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Paul!👍🏼

[@danielkates3898]

Joe, I'm trying this later today. I'm curious why you don't use the integrated temperatures probes that come with the Yoder YS640?

[@shyjesta]

Great job, looks so good!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you!👍🏼

[@ramonvega8036]

Joe they look flavorful, can you ship the second one to New Jersey? 😂😂😂 Great Channel keep it up.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thank you Ramon! I bet the drug sniffing dogs would get to it first. 😁👍🏼

[@CentralTexasGrilling]

Great looking turkey brotha

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks James!🤘 They were so good!

[@CookingWithRy]

Looking great! Love a good smoked turkey breast :)

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks RY! These birds were so good!🤘

[@thegrumpyolgringo]

I love good smoked turkey anytime. These looked amazing, but I think I missed what " flavor?" Of wood pellets that you used? Liked the idea of the pizza pan. Nicely Done. Thanks for sharing. 😎.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Hey Grumpy! I used B&B Mesquite buddy. I usually use B&B or a champion blend from Walmart. Thanks buddy. 👍🏼 Do you BBQ? If so, what smoker do you own?

[@thegrumpyolgringo]

@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ Sorry at this time I do not have a smoker or grill. But I would be going towards a simple style pellet smoker. Recently I become interested in the Camp Chef Wood Wind, with the Sidekick. Maybe next year. The bbq would be just for and my son maybe a couple of other people once in a while, so I wouldn't need anything too special. 😎.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

@@thegrumpyolgringo Nice. The Camp Chef is a nice smoker. You'll be ready to grill since you support lots of bbq channels.👍🏼

[@thegrumpyolgringo]

@@SmokinJoesPitBBQ That's my thought process as well. LoL 😎

[@markn.7054]

Well done Joe! Really good looking turkey breasts. I’ve used butter to baste & prepared a separate glaze but I’m gonna barrow your idea of adding honey to the butter this year. We don’t have a big market for rubs in NJ. Where can I get some of that Gold Dust? There are several Gold Dust products on the Internet but it didn’t look like the one you used.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Hello Mark, click on this link. Thanks for watching buddy!👍🏼 www.victorylanebbq.com/?ambas...

Smokin' Joe's Pit BBQ thanks for the link. I went from only wanting the Gold Dust to 6 Victory Lane rubs.

TURKEY TIME OF THE YEAR!!!!!!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

[@davidpate2237]

Will this recipe work on wild turkey also and on an offset smoker

[@TheStefdaddy]

I mean those look amazing

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Stefdaddy! 👍🏼

[@briandugan3562]

Joe, what was the mixture of butter and honey?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Hello Brian, 50/50 buddy.👍🏼

[@tjasso766]

How many times did you baste it throughout the cook?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Only 2 times. The first time and then like 15 minutes later. The turkeys will start to get dark after basting so I wait until they're almost done.👍🏼

[@Crankinstien]

Where did you get the round tray they are sitting on?

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

I purchased them from shamrock food, a restaurant supply store.

[@jimmiller82]

What is the brand of your spray bottle?

The turkey breast look so good. I may try a whole breast this year instead of the small roast. Keep smoking!

[@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin]

I clicked Like so fast there was a smokey smell.

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Thanks Russell! 😂🤘

[@Jet_D]

That looks really tastey!

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

Thanks Jet! It was delicious.👍🏼

[@VerdantImage]

Looks good! But try filleting the breasts after cooking and cutting horizontal cross sections, makes it supremely more tender

[@SmokinJoesPitBBQ]

I've never tried that but I will. 👍

[@seanelucero]

Pro tip. - make your own rub. Stupid over priced when you buy them

[@محمدفاروقبالولي]

The only thing I hate about your videos is that you do not zoom in to show the juices.
