Thanks for the responses! It sounds as though the Weber’s are quite hardy then!
As some have said though the price is very steep right now…

Mine has been outside and uncovered for over 4 years and looks fine. I did buy a Weber cover, but it went brittle and mouldy.
Very close to pulling the trigger on this Weber:https://www.wowbbq.co.uk/categories...-genesis-ii-e-310-gbs-black/61011174~61011174
Anyone have any experience of one?
I've only done a turkey crown on my kamado once and don't remember the details that well but I think 10 hours sounds like overkill and will dry it out. I'd stick to the old adage of cook for temp instead of time, but my guess would be you'll get to 'cooked' in something around 4 hours at 300F.Hi All,
Finally planning to do my Turkey Crown tomorrow in the smoker, using the last of the summer sun. It's roughly 3KG, I expect it to be a 10 hour job. Managed to grab a load of reduced Weber coal at B&Q also - so hopefully have plenty
That said, I did have a couple of questions for those that have done it before:
- I assumed low and slow, however any experience welcome
- Which seasoning did you use, just salt and pepper?
- Brine or not to brine?
- Do you baste it during the smoke? If so, what with?
Many thanks!

Definitely keep it simple on seasoning.
And ive never brined poultry myself but everyone who does says it's a must, so I'd advise if you can, even though my lazy arse has never managed it.
That has a lovely pinkish tint, did you reverse sear? Looks like flavourtown
Your Kamado is so clean, is it new?
It is relatively new, probably only used half a dozen times as I switch between that and the Weber MT. It's an Aldi kamado I initially bought as a stop gap until I could get the Big Green Egg bundle I wanted, but now wondering why I would want to do that as the AK has been very good so far for both quick/fast cooks and long/slow ones.
