Bullseye Thanksgiving Turkey

[Krakrjak]

Is it possible to do a 20+ pound turkey on the bullseye or is it too short with the lid on

 

[Mike]

@Krakrjak I could be wrong but I think a 20 pound turkey is going to be to big to fit in a Bullseye, that is without doing a spatchcock.

I agree with Mike here. I prefer to cook my whole chicken and turkeys using spatchcock method anyway. For me, it's perfect for Thanksgiving because I end up cutting it all up anyway before we start the feed line.

Could you guys please elaborate on this method as I am just now getting into smoking

I got one of these "Lid Extensions" that I used to use to cook BIG turkeys on my Weber Kettle. I haven't unpacked my Bullseye yet, but I'm hoping I can get it to work.

I'm thinking to just unbolt one half of the hinge, for the few times that I will ever use the extension.

You can add a 10” ring from Cajun bandit to use it more like a smoker

although better to get a bullseye and a dedicated pellet smoker
