For the first time, we’re going to smoke our turkey in a Big Green Egg. Do you have any idea if brining is recommended or not for smoking a turkey?

Hi Julie,
You can put the turkey on a bed of apples that have been sliced in half if you want. They would be a great compliment to the pan juices for the gravy as well since they will let off some nice juices while the turkey is cooking. Just remove them once you are done ccoking the turkey. Or, you can use onions or large carrots to lay the turkey on. There are definite ways around not have a roasting rack, so do not worry about it!
I really hope you enjoy the turkey! I hope everyone reports back after this week to let me know what they think!
Happy Thanksgiving, Julie!

I can’t wait to try the turkey recipe, although I have never brined before and have a wonderful habit of drying out poultry when I cook it, so I’m a little nervous. I don’t have a lot of storage space for a large roasting pan so I use disposable ones. Any suggestions of what to use for a rack since I disposable pans don’t have them? Is it absolutely necessary? I thought of maybe using one of my metal cookie cooling racks if it fits.

Thanks again for the great posts!
