Ingredients
- 12 lbs turkey
- ½ cup Dijon mustard
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons za'atar seasoning
- 3 lime zested and halved
- 1 onion halved and quartered, sweet yellow
- 10 prigs thyme fresh
- salt to taste, sea salt
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the pellet side of the Cuisinart Twin Oaks Pellet & Gas Grill to 325 degrees.
- Gently rinse and pat dry turkey and place into a roasting pan, then whisk together the dijon mustard, olive oil, za'atar seasoning, and lime zest. Coat entire turkey with marinade, then stuff the inside with as much of the lime halves and onion quarters and thyme sprigs as possible, surrounding the outside of the turkey with the remaining lime, onion, and thyme sprigs. Sprinkle turkey with salt and pepper, then place meat probes into the thickest portions of the breast and thigh.
- Place turkey in the smoker and plug in meat probes. Close the lid and let smoke until the lowest temperature meat probe reaches 165 degrees, about 3 hours for a 12-pound turkey. For browner, crispier skin, turn the heat up to 350 degrees when the lowest temperature probe reaches 155 degrees. Remove turkey from smoker and let sit for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
