1. Should I Season My Turkey Before Smoking?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Yes. I recommend seasoning your turkey before smoking to add extra flavor besides flavored wood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Turkey seasoning adds an unmatched flavor to your bird and makes for a scrumptious-looking crust that tastes even better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Should I Rub Oil On My Turkey Before Seasoning?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Yes, you should. The oil acts as a binder to help the spice blends adhere to the turkey. Without it, most of the rub will shake right off as soon as you move your meat to the roasting tray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I recommend using olive oil or yellow mustard as a binder before seasoning and smoking turkey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
