Big Monkey
Veteran XV
One 12-14lb Butterball Turkey
Slap Ya Mama Cajun Seasoning
1/2 stick butter
If the turkey is frozen, let it thaw in the fridge. Might take 3-5 days. I would highly suggest laying down some kitchen towels and putting the bird in a plastic grocery bag while it thaws so you won't get messy stuff all over your fridge.
When you're ready to cook, take out the butter 2 hours before use to let it come up to room temp. Once it's warm, feel free to mix it with herbs like Rosemary, sage, or poultry seasoning.
Bring your heat source up to temp...I use 350-400 degrees.
Unwrap turkey and take out the stuff inside like the neck, giblets, etc. then rinse it and pat dry.
Rub your softened butter all over, then season it with the Slap Ya Mama.
Place it in your smoker directly on the grate
Cook it about 3 hours around 350-400 degrees or till internal temp of the breast reaches 165.
Put a tent of foil over the pan and let it rest for about 20-30 minutes.
Slice and enjoy
