New member here and new traeger owner. I purchased a Traeger Pro 575 a few weeks ago. I smoked a turkey for Christmas. It cooked fine, but there wasn't much of a smoke flavor. I butterflied the turkey and brined it for 3 days with kosher salt and baking powder. I cooked it over Traeger turkey blend pellets, first at 185, then 250, and I finished it off at 325 for about the last 30 minutes. I pulled the turkey when it reached 150 degrees.
Did I do something wrong? Would it help if I lowered the cover for the smokestack so it is closer to the smokestack opening?
