    Thanksgiving 2025 Prep.

    Was able to get some turkey breast for $.79/lb. Thawed them out today and boned them out. Right around 20lbs of bone in breast ended up being just over 10lbs of meat. Keep that in mind when calculating your meat for the day. We will still have more loss during the cook. Make a brine with salt...

    Brine or no brine

    I purchased two Honeysuckle White boneless turkey breasts. The label shows that they're already in an 18% solution. Would I necessarily gain anything by doing an additional brine before I smoke them, or am I just setting myself up for a salty mess?

    Time and temp to smoke 5 lb boneless turkey breast?

    Spent some time looking online myself, but I get such mixed info. Some sites saying anywhere from 20-40 minutes per lb. So for anyone who has already smoked a 5lb boneless turkey breast, how long at 225?

    Turkey Breast Cook

    How long can I keep a fresh, not frozen, turkey breast in my garage refrigerator before I cook it? I say garage refrigerator because it might get opened once a day, I am going to smoke it the day before thanksgiving, and just want to know how early I can buy it.

    My Cheap Turkey Post

    After the holidays, turkeys go on sale and I stock up the freezer! At 69¢ a lb. it makes a great smoking bargain! I would venture to go out on a limb and say, that other than the holidays, its not a regular "go-to" BBQ item you see too often around here. But I'll make my case here in that turkey...

    Instant Pot Pinto Beans (Frijoles Charros) + Turkey Roast

    I was gifted an Instant Pot for Christmas and I have been playing around with it quite a bit. So far, it has produced excellent eggs for pickling and awesome Pork n' Sauerkraut. A litmus test of mine for this Instant Pot was to make beans without soaking. I must say, these came out pretty good...

    Boneless Turkey Breast Smoke Time

    Smoking two 5lb turkey breasts this weekend. I've only smoked full birds with the bones and everything and I've figured out the timing on that. I've never smoked boneless breasts. How much time per pound should I give a boneless turkey breast? My gut tells me 20-30 min per pound to get to an...
