can you smoke a whole turkey in it?

I have not smoked a turkey yet, but plan to. This little Traeger is wonderful. Have done baby back ribs, brauts, chicken halves and steelhead fish. Just follow the directions.

Yes Sir: However, I have the "Jr." Traeger and must keep the turkey weight at about 12/14 lbs.

No your best bet is a turkey cannon that cooks in the same manner but made for turkey. Google it.

You need a smoker into which you can place wood chips like this to produce flavors in meats, poultry, fish, etc.

We leave the temp on high and leave the lid open. Otherwise it will turn ur turkey black. We shut it for a few minutes at the end of cooking just to brown it up a little more. We do not use the smoking chips, just our preference. We rub the turkey down with olive oil & McCormicks rotisserie chicken spices. Good luck!

No. A large chicken fits well but you will need the larger smoker for a turkey.

You can smoke meat. We use it for smoking meat and fish, and are very happy with it.

No you can't use the grill inside.To much smoke when cooking will cause your smoke alarm to ring. The weight limit varies. The manuel states 2 whole 1/2-3 lbs.,turkey whole 8-12 lbs. I don't know I have tried 1 whole chicken. I found when it's too much weigth the rotisserie drops. I might have done something wrong. I hope this helps.

You could, but shouldn't. I tried it once, made a big mess. A smoker needs to be seasoned, you rub down the inside with canola oil and get it hot, and a charcoal fire in the cooking area would make the food taste weird when you smoke again. This is a great smoker for the money, I love it

You should be able to but you'll still feel a little heat so you can't hold it too long. I've transferred a couple of pork shoulders from my smoker without any problem. I've also transferred whole chickens, roast beefs, and smoke ribs so I don't think lifting a turkey would be a problem.

Yes, unless the turkey is so big as to take up all the room inside. I cook veggies same time as chicken often.

only if it was the size if a chicken. The opening is too small for a turkey. What a great Idea, though. Rhese thinfs are awesome and you get some really tasty meals with throwing in some veggies and meat.

yes it can fit a large turkey, but not very happy with unit . This unit is very under powered takes a really long time to cook. I also own and do recommend a masterbuilt smoker 40 inch digital model beats the Bradley smoker hands down

We smoked 8 large pork butts at one time in it, 2 on each shelf. We have had a 14 lb turkey on a rack and other items on 2 other racks, but had to take one rack out when doing that because of the height of the turkey. The racks are very well made. We have NO complaints about the smoker whatsoever and we did have complaints about a previous (non-Masterbuilt) one we owned.

i did a turkey for last thanksgiving that everyone loved... I like that it is electric and i don't have to worry about the propane. Just rub it down with peanut oil.

Your spits, drip tray and ties. You'll be able to cook your turkey no problem. I'm doing a duck.

I have never used it for that and do not use a thermometer. However the low temp is very low. I'll put a smoked turkey on low after it is done to "Hold" it and it does not over cook. But I have never checked temp.

You can, but at some point you would have to open the smoker and remove both the grates and the drip pan to add additional smoking chips to the platform that sits on the heating element and then put everything back. You might think that you could just pile on a lot of chips on the platform if you want to smoke longer, but the advice I read (mostly on the Amazon reviews but also at the Old Smokey site, as I recall) says that you don't want to overfill the chips or you'll get a funny taste.
