So I decided I want to try a cured turkey .So I figured i would practice on some chicken drumsticks ..I made a variation of pop's brine , basically the same I always use use plus the # 1 curing salt .. I just made sure my proportions where spot on....  about 3 hrs

on the smoke ...Also did a small rack of beef ribs too .. The chicken cam out fantastick !!!!   As did the beef too ..

Those ribs look killer and I've never seen smoke like that on chicken before. What was the IT on the drumsticks. They look a little pink or is that just the brine/cure?

The pink is from the cure ... They were not as pink as they looked in the pic , but after even reheating them they are still pink !!! Flavor from the smoke (apple) was awesome !!!!! I can't to try some turkey drumsticks !!!! And the beef ribs were great also, melt in your mouth !!
