Tomorrow is officially Thanksgiving DAy in Canada. As my daughter will be working then, we held the meal today. Brined a bone in turkey breast overnight. Smoked it in MES for 4 1/2 hrs at 240F using hickory. It needed a little oven time as not quite done.
Was quite tender and juicy. Nice amount of smoke flavour but not overpowering. Made dressing (my daughters one request of things to include in meal); mashed potatoes; green bean with bacon, lemon juice and grated parmasen cheese and gravy using stock created from cooking giblets all day. There is cranberry sauce (ok, from a can). There also were devilled eggs. There is an apple cake for later.
