Wild Turkeys

Congrats on your hunting results, those fresh turkeys will taste really good brined and smoked.

Here's a link to a tasty brine posted by Travcoman45:

I've yet to try it but have passed it around to many as it looks tasty, and simple.

Good luck and hope to see some pics of the results!

Gratz on the birds. My friends are talking about turkey hunting in upcoming seasons.I think it is time for me to step up to plate and buy a shotgun and join em.

Even if I don't get a gun or go help after the smoked turkey we had the other day I am sure they will be coming to me with whatever they get.

Here is a brine recipe for chicken I got from the book "Legends of Texas BBQ"

8 cups water
1/2 cup sea salt
2 tablespoon hot sauce (I used lots more then that)
1 tablespoon ground pepper
1 tbs poultry seasoning
1 can beer

That is the amount of ingredients needed for 3-4 pound chicken.
