    Chuckie Done early

    Cutting boards

    I have all the tools and lumber to make one but most of my projects are furniture related. I keep trying to set aside time and material for one but always give it up to another project. Probably going to do a walnut/maple with a hint of cherry end grain with a juice groove.

    Golden brown turkey skin? Need help!

    I usually slow smoke at 220-235 and then once it gets to 140 IT I will crank the temp to 425 and it will give it a nice and crispy skin. I have done EVOO with my rub as well as no EVOO and it turns out great both ways.

    Probie to the forum, junior agent on grill.

    I have always done my grilling and smoking on my standard Weber Kettle in the past but just picked up a GMG DB pellet grill. I look forward to everyone's tips and tricks for getting the best grub from there equipment.
