    Whole Chicken cook: Pellet grill cook

    Thanks Takes time to trust us. I learned MOST of this here. Had the same questions. Keeping a bird whole does NOT work well unless you truss like @chopsaw or you spin (rotis). The cavity prevents the thing from cooking evenly. This is why spatchcocking is so popular. It works PERFECTLY...

    Bird is the word!!! How do you cook yours???

    LOVE turkey in all ways. That said, I would probably say deep fried with TonyC injection is the best followed by cured/smoked (see avatar). For TG tho I am a purist and absolutely oven roasted for me. The smell of that glorious bird roasting in the house is one of the best things ever. Wife...

    Whole Chicken cook: Pellet grill cook

    IMO a pellet grill is PERFECT for bird. You want mild smoke like a wood fired grill. Easy to overdo it on mild fare like bird. The key to bird is to brine and higher temps as was already said. Overnight brine min but longer is better. I typically dry brine and hold a week or so. Not a...

    I have a plumbing issue

    Did not try HARD enough :emoji_wink: Not really a Facebook guy but have joined a number of trades pages. I am VERY knowledgeable of most especially electric and just find it interesting. OMG the job pics they post! Poor plumber having to move "toys" under the sink to work on the drain...

    Buyer Beware?

    I work with the County Auditor who here in Ohio is the governing entity for this. I actually had a friend who did the inspections. So I know enough and decided to look it up. Code states 3% accuracy for retail scale. 16*.03=.48 so 15.52oz is lowest allowable so no violation. Honestly...

    Video games?

    Asking Santa for Ninja Gaiden 4. For some odd reason, youngest and I are REALLY into Wii Sports as of late. Got me a chip in Eagle in golf last night.

    Not smoking related so posting here. First time making pot stickers

    NICE! I make "potsticker meatballs" with leftover pork grind. Easy and tasty but still dialing in. Strangely, the key is cabbage. Originally thought it was green onion. I use bagged slaw mix.

    I have a plumbing issue

    Dang was hoping to see you got it off! Not a fan of using the torch for a repair like that. Outside on a car maybe. Add me to the group that says to cut it BUT would try an old car repair trick first. Try tightening it a little THEN loosening. Repeat that back and forth a few times and see...

    Homemade Chili + Cinnamon Rolls = WOW

    I get that. Funny the way you say it being a corn cake as it really WAS. Just realized that. You might like this. My Dad tells me the time he was in Nam and was served grits. The southern guys flipped OUT when he put sugar on them. :emoji_laughing:

    Homemade Chili + Cinnamon Rolls = WOW

    Too funny. The people complaining about putting cinnamon in chili are eating cinnamon rolls on the side!!! FYI Those tubed cinn rolls are 1000% better if you let them rise like an hour. Straight into oven is a hard pass here. For me, the best side for chili is corn bread (@luvcatchingbass...

    MES 30 upgrade?

    I got a 40 last year and think the 30 is a toy compared to the 40. No experience on cook size but think 20lbs would be doable. Might take a little more time in the beginning (assuming were talking sausage). 40 I got was used but like new on FB Marketplace $100. SS/door with window/...

    Anyone else make aged eggnog?

    That's a DEEP rabbit hole. Been around forever. George Washington's fave. Ran these yesterday. Classic bounce: brandy, clove, sugar.

    Brine a Turkey Breast that's been Brined?

    Yep, this is essentially high school chemistry. Once you embrace it all the confusion/mystery is gone. Scale and metric are the way. I would NOT call a Butterball an pre brined bird. I would call it enhanced. Honestly, as life long eater of them and Honeysuckle Pride, they're really not...

    Talk, to, me about Insta pots, please.

    Traditional definitely has merit. Capacity and legit canning ability. There are always commercial ones on FB Marketplace. Total pro screw top ones. Came close to grabbing one. 555 works INSANELY well. Forget deviled eggs, pickled eggs is where it's at. I am getting SUPER geeky with it and...
