| We're cooking our Turkey....
..the old fashion way. In the oven. The GF and I wanted to deep-fry the bird this year but couldn't bring ourselves to spend $60 on a fryer,$20 on oil and $20 on gas to cook a $12 bird. Whats the best way you've had a Turkey?

Hands down, on my smoker. We are hosting this year, so it will be oven turkey since we are also smoking a full salmon.

The Fryer is the best...quickest and typically most juicy if you marinate it with the injector. Smoked Turkey to me is just not the same. You can buy deli smoked turkey...blah. |

| That's Christmas in my house. As far as cooking a turkey; I don't care if it's smoke, fried, or baked in the oven or slow cooked in a large crock pot, if that bird hasn't rested before being cooked, is overcooked at all, hasn't rested after being cooked, or lord forbid, all three, then you gone f'd the turkey. Some basic cooking techniques can make almost anything taste great. SS |

Mine's getting the rub down under skin treatment with a citrus based compound butter...and stuffed with as many lemons, limes, and oranges it will hold...along with one ruby red grapefruit. $12 bird? I spent $25 on my 13 pounder I figure I'd spend $15-$20 on a really nice 16oz angus steak...so might as well spend a bit more on a good turkey. |

My bird has been sleeping in my freezer for at least a week, then it took a nice bath yesterday. Today she will spend about an hour in peanut oil, then down the gullet she goes. | |

had my tukey soaking in a brine / marinade for the past 4 days. i'll be pulling her from the oven some time this afternoon and she he should be nice and juicy. and say what you will but she's going to be covered in foil till the last hour for browning Last edited by NeXt559; 11-26-2009 at 08:43 AM. |
