Here's an update on how long my turkey took. 14 pound turkey, brined and stuffed with mire poix took 4.5 hours to get to 165 in the breast. Had the #1 turned all the way up (250). Timing was perfect. Let it rest for 1 hour on a sheet pan covered with foil. Was still piping hot after the rest. Very juicy. I continue to be amazed at how moist the breast meat comes out when I smoke turkey or chicken. Will post the chili recipe tomorrow.

Great to hear your timing was right on track, Kari!  I expect the same, with mine, tomorrow.  Don't think I've ever had a 14 pounder go longer than 5 hours, but usually around 4.5. 

The recipes look great!
