    Not much time...

    I have a fantasy football draft coming up Sunday. I want to serve pulled pork and smoked Mac n Cheese, among other stuff. My problem is, I just got back from vacation and will be working 10-hour days until Sunday. Now, while I don't mind pulling an all-nighter, I'd like to get some sleep before...

    Smoking a Turkey for 2 different dinners

    I'd do 2 smokes. It doesn't take that long and I think its worth it. But you can reheat the turkey for the second day, I've done it for big parties and it'll be good.  I'd still do 2. I've done it before. its a lot of work but soooooooo worth it. And the smoking is part of the fun!!!!

    Buttermilk brine for Turkey?

    Spachock Time

    I am planning on spachocking my turkey for Thanksgiving. What is the cooking time? I'm doing the bacon butter turkey and am brining it in a buttermilk brine. I usually smoke it around 225-250. Any tips?

    Big smoke next Saturday...

    Oh, and the surprised responses regarding the bacon wrapped chicken thighs were funny! They were definitely a hit.  And the Sangria was a big hit - especially with me! ;-)

    The wine for the Sangria is a semi-sweet, so it'll be good. I'm about the only dry wine lover - well except for one lady who will be drinking the Cabernet with me!  The brisket and the pork are resting in their coolers before I put them into the refrigerator.  The chicken have been soaked in...
