Smokeless at 325 degrees
I smoked my first full packer brisket to perfection with the pellet smoker. Now, smoking a full turkey at 325 degrees. It maintains the temp buy no smoke. Is this normal at this temp?

I'm certainly not one to advise on the Pellet Cooker but, as a complete Pellet Nerd, mine only smokes at the low temp settings "Smoke" "200" "225" - - - I bought an AMAZ'N smoker unit that is supposed to give more smoke taste but I'm not thrilled with it either.

Re: Smokeless at 325 degrees
I don't own a pellet but I'd say yes it's pretty normal. In fact, you're likely getting the best kind of smoke from a very clean burning fire. You can always adjust next time - start a little lower and finish off higher but poultry can get pretty smokey tasting if you're not being careful. Good luck and let us know how it came out.

Re: Smokeless at 325 degrees
Pellet fired pits are extremely efficient, an inefficient fire produces lots of smoke, the hotter the temp on a pellet cooker the less visible the smoke, if you want some smoke consider some of the smoking tubes, or some pellets in a foil pack on the edge of your fire pot, and poke a hole in the foil with a tooth pick...
