How is your turkey going to be cooked this year

[bbqman]

Since Turkey day is just a couple of days away, I was wondering how everyone will be preparing their bird this year. If you are not cooking a turkey that is fine please tell me what and how you prepare it.

I stay true to my handle and smoke my birds in a pit for about 10 to 12 hrs. I use a special dry rub and let them sit in the fridge for about 8 to 10 hrs to soak up all that flavor into the meat.

Everytime I hear of someone deep frying their turkey it reminds me of that Allstate commercial with that guy that played Cerano in Major League telling everyone how many people set their houses on fire doing that.


I will be baking our turkey in the oven. We got a small turkey breast since it's just going to be 3 of us eating Thanksgiving dinner.

Will anyone be watching any HD shows on Thanksgiving?

Our first year with a convection oven. May not sound like much but initial testing this summer was promising. Best turkey we've had.

This will be our third year hosting the festivities for both our families.

Will anyone be watching any HD shows on Thanksgiving?

Hopefully NFL & NBA.

Will anyone be watching any HD shows on Thanksgiving?

nah, my whole family comes over and that pretty much eliminates any tv time.

bbqman, you make it sound like your family is a burden on your tv watching time.

Am I reading that right?

 

[bbqman]

I guess burden is to strong a word. Lets just say with 10 people in the house and 4 of them my grandkids my viewing time is quite limited. Suffice to say, I will try to get in a few minutes of the Cowboys annual turkey fest.

We will have one turkey in the oven and one cooked on the grill, lightly basted in my own bbq sauce.

On the TV will be the NFL and the Great Alaska Shootout!
