Heating smoked turkey
Received my shipment of a smoked whole turkey yesterday. Curious what is
the preferred method for warming it up on Thanksgiving Day and not drying it out in the process? |

I don't know, but just guessing, put it in a hot oven, maybe a covered pan and heat it up till it's as warm as you want. BBQ |

Cold smoked: (as above) remove when thigh/body joint reaches 161F. Rest and carve. At least both of those have worked for me.

Heating smoked turkey
It would have to be completely cooked to be shipped to your home. All you
need to do is heat it to the temperature that you want to eat it. In our home that would be as low as 125F and at most 140F. Do this as slowly as possible with a very low oven temp 225-250F, fully covered, to prevent it from drying out. Heat it in your oven, not your grill. All you're doing is to warm it to serving temp, no more. Any more heating will dry it out, and accomplish absolutely nothing. Happy Thanksgiving to you and all. Kent BTW, where did you buy it?? Give us a report on it. We would all appreciate that. "Jim" > wrote in message ... > Received my shipment of a smoked whole turkey yesterday.
