Southern Barbecue enthusiasts know that turkey isn't just for Thanksgiving.

Smoked turkey, a beloved staple of the region's culinary repertoire, showcases the artistry of patience and smoke. The turkey's meat absorbs the smoky essence while retaining its natural juiciness, making each slice an ode to southern dedication to flavor and tradition.

We cook ours slowly only after careful preparation to make the flavor just right. 🦃 🔥 Come get ya some!

We did some research to find out what the most common barbecue questions are and here is what we found!
4. What’s the ideal temperature for brisket, ribs, or pork shoulder?

When we’re talkin’ the “magic number” for perfectly tender barbecue, we’re looking for the temperature which breaks down collagen and fat. Aim for an internal temperature between 195–205°F to get the meat tender and juicy. 🥩 🔥
