A couple of weeks ago my Kroger affiliate had an incredible deal on frozen turkey breasts (.99/lb), and Mrs ~t~ picked up two. We thawed one for a test run. First, I removed the skin, and boned out the breast meat. The carcass was seasoned and baked, then turned into a turkey pot pie and bone...

Last year I took over Thanksgiving turkey duty for parts of my family and I used my electric smoker to do both of them at once with decent results. I am looking to upgrade/consolidate equipment from a gas grill and electric smoker to a pellet grill. The one I have had my eye on is the Weber...
I'm way ahead of myself here, but, for some reason, my thoughts have turned to Thanksgiving turkey lately. I'd like to try rotisserie cooking this year. My Weber Genesis with a rotisserie attachment is way too small to accommodate a 16-20 pound bird, so I'm wondering what kind of set up I...

I have an 18 lb. Butterball turkey that is thawing out in my fridge since yesterday (12/26). The plan is to make this as part of the NYE festivities, and reading around, I've seen dry brine, wet brine, low-temp smoke (225), high temp smoke (325) and some combos of both.
At the moment, I am...

Well I finally got around to using some more of the leftover turkey (I made a sandwich spread last week).
I had a package of 12oz, which didn't match the recipe I found so I had to do math :-(

There are many correct methods for smoking the Thanksgiving turkey as you might imagine.. this video is simply how I do it most of the time.
If you've never smoked a turkey before, I recommend you practice one a few weeks before the big day.
For last few years I have made turkey on a rotisserie - wet brine, inject breast, kettle grill with Slow N Sear and a rotisserie attachment, grill temp about 350F, pull when breast is between 155 and 160 F, rest half hour or more. I toss a few chunks of apple wood into the Slow N Sear.
I bake...
Uh oh.. I've stepped in it now!
This may sound absurd but in my 60 years I've never cooked a turkey at all so I'm totally clueless where to start!
I have a vintage OKJ Highland that I brought back from the dead and restored to near new condition. And I have a turkey.
I bought a ~12lb turkey...
This past weekend I smoked my 1st Turkey. My Daughter and her husband are hoisting Thanksgiving this year in their new home and asked me if I could bring a smoked bird to add to their oven baked Turkey to the table this year. So since I have never done one before I figured I need to do a test...
