Thank you all for suggestions! They definitely got me thinking outside my box. The "Smoked Gravy" will become legend! It was THAT good! It was also a way to use what we had. The breast had been cubed because my friend's son breast-shot the turkey and it would have been unusable otherwise. The...

Oh... MY! The trussed and smoked breast was fantastic!! But as awesome as it was, the cubed breast in the smoked gravy stole the show! It was indescribably delicious! You are correct, b-one... It would have made an amazing pot pie! My only criticism would be to, next time, cut back on the brine...

Hey y'all from Crowley's Ridge in Southeast Missouri. I would never have bought for it myself but Mrs. O'Baby had no problem dropping the cash on a Traeger pellet grill for me for Father's Day. After over 30 ears of wedded bliss I do have to admit that it is BY FAR my most favorite thing she has...
