Make an EASY Pellet Grill-Smoked Whole Turkey, seasoned to perfection.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
Warm the pellet grill up to 225°F, you can use any pellets, we use a variety of flavors.
- Step 2
While the grill is warming, stuff the cavity of the turkey with chunks of lemon, onion, basil, and the stick of butter.
- Step 3
Rub the outside with Lemon Pepper. This will be a dry rub, if you prefer to brine the turkey first, see the link in the post for brine instructions.
- Step 4
Place the turkey on the smoker and smoke for 6 hours or about 30 minutes per pound until the internal temperature reaches at least 165°F for the breast and 170-175°F for the thighs.
- Step 5
If you prefer, you can baste it with chicken broth every hour during the smoking time to keep it moist. (Note - if you plan to baste it be sure to place the turkey in an aluminum roasting pan and then on the smoker, not directly on the grates.)
- Step 6
After it is fully cooked, serve as desired.
