Two Weeks Until Turkey Day!

Smoker works? Great! Depending on the recipe you're using, the tools and toys you'll need to smoke your turkey will vary. Here's a partial list from the Equipment Checklist page to get you started.

My Favorite Remote Smoker Thermometer

The SMOKE thermometer made by Thermoworks is my favorite smoker thermometer these days. It has dual probes, one for the meat and one for measuring smoke chamber temperature, plus easy-to-use controls. If you want to smoke great quality meats, a high quality smoker thermometer is one of the best investments you can make.





A great thing about this thermometer is that Thermoworks sells a variety of specialized temperature probes for different purposes. So if you want, you can buy a second meat probe and use it in place of the smoke chamber probe. That's great for checking both dark and light meat of the turkey at the same time.
