It’s a good technique. Probably unnecessary if you are cooking one since there is plenty of space on 22” wsm but would be great to hang two small ones and maybe some chickens or ribs.
thank you! part of the reason I didn't do a turkey video last year because it was the same ole stuff everywhere, so I kinda "boycott" the turkey videos but then it bit me in the butt with views LOL. Really tried to do something different here so I appreciate it. gracias!
How did I miss this!? These are some great tips Sal! And those hangers/skewers are pretty cool! I'll have to see if I can find me some! Great looking turkey and I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving!
Some great tips in there Sal! The WSM is a fantastic cooker for chicken, turkey, you name it and hanging meats always works perfectly! Happy thanksgiving brother! 🦃🍻
Great tips, and this is a great video! (I know I am watching after Thanksgiving) To re-use charcoal,...had a guy blast me in one of my videos for doing! Lol, what a goof! Here is an added tip (in my opinion) Don't use the charcoal for smoking that has the wood particles in it, ..I think it gives dirty smoke? Thanks!
Thanks for watching Paulie. Not reusing charcoal seems like such a waste! but yes great additional tip. Those fillers some charcoal manufactures use, cannot be good.
hey Sal these are some awesome tips, very informative video! Totally agreed with practicing on a chicken - I've never actually cooked a turkey before 'cause it's honestly intimidating, but chicken is way more manageable! The turkey is totally making my tummy grumble right now! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving man! The editing of this video was top notch!
thank you! glad you liked it. the wsm's are awesome. I almost picked up the small 14" wsm the other day just to have it since it'll fit a chicken or porkbutt in there perfectly..but i am not allowed to get another grill 😞 (...well until I finally buy my offset haha)
No end of brilliant tips in here Sal! I love the idea of practicing methods or techniques on chicken first, before you get into the big meal day. That thought to work with several smaller turkeys instead of one big one is genius as well! I'd love to try this hanging method... if we get a WSM, this is happening! Turned out perfect! Thank you for this Sal!
thanks so much! chicken always comes out so good using this method so not surprised turkey comes out awesome as well. thinking of hanging a turkey and a few rack of ribs this thanksgiving. should be a blast!
To everyone here try what he said but eventually try a bit more wood. I personally like 3-7 fist size chunks of wood even on poultry and so has everyone else I’ve cooked for. Can’t go wrong either way. Just experiment.
if you are wondering how to use less charcoal on your 22" wsm, check out this hack! th-cam.com/video/98Gp5MaK2l4/w-d-xo.html
Good tip about cooking smaller turkeys versus one large one
Thank you! large turkeys are such a drag lol
Good advice...spot on! 👀
thank you! hoping this video reaches out to the right person before thanksgiving!

I’ve heard of this method but this is the first time I’ve ever seen it. Outstanding!

@@SJCOOKS Hope you and your family have a very happy Thanksgiving as well!
Nice cook! I put my kettle lid directly on the bowl of my WSM when I'm done cooking. This helps snuff out the coals quicker.
i learn something new everyday. thank you so much for sharing this tip!
Came to hang with ya!

Thanks brother! i practice on chicken all year long so the thanksgiving turkey is always so easy lol
If i use a thermometer with the probe wire and have to open the lid maybe two or three times that just allows me to have an extra beer🍺
Very good strategy! lol cheers 🍻
Excellent instructional step by step video bud! you're making me want to go buy a smoky now! nice cook!

That was awesome! 😎👍 I’m wondering if the turkey told you to tell us to practice on chickens?? 🧐 I smell a conspiracy here….
you are right...the turkey king has kidnapped me and is making me say these things. send help!
