How you guys doing your turkey?

[ironchefscott]

Anyone doing anything special for theirs? I am fairly simple and brine mine for 2 days then start high temp to brown...then turn it low
Huge fan of brining
I wish I had enough duck fat to confit a whole turkey...but alas.

smoke a 10lb bird for about 7 hours..

put a light, sweet, rub on it about 48 hours in advance.. then hit it with a apple juice/coke based mopping sauce about once an hour, every hour, while its smoking...


mmmmmmmmm...... cant wait!

had great results doing a 24 hour brine, cribbed the process from alton brown @good eats. as i have a teeny house, it usually goes into a double trash bag, then a roasting tray in the fridge: trash bag turkey always has a fight for the leftovers. o)

Inject with Cajun spices and deep fry...can't wait!!!

Brine it for 24 hours and then in the smoker, under the ham so the pork fat drips on the turkey.

Deep fried in peanut oil after cajun injection and very light rub...

I buy a frozen one, give it to my mom, then when I go over there on Thanksgiving its ready to eat. Magic I tell ya...

That's pretty funny Hosh. Took me a second but funny. I use the Alton Brown brine method as well. Can't beat a good brine.
