How are you going to cook turkey this year?

[Bigc177]

I will be frying a big bird, and smoking a turkey breast. First time ever smoking meat, so it should be entertaining to say the least!

My son in law will be deep frying. Can't wait.

I'll be smoking my bird.

I believe it was 3 years ago I deep fried one and smoked one just to see what everyone (My entire Mom's side of the family) liked better. After everyone was done eating, the smoked turkey was a meatless carcass and there was ~90% of the (perfectly cooked) fried turkey left over.

Included in that missing 10% was a leg that I ate...I LOVE me a fried turkey leg, but as a whole, smoking is a better (i.e. juicier and tastier) method IMO.

Deep fried with shredded white castles stuffed inside. YUM !

Cooking three.

One deep fried, the other two oven.

One will be seasoned with habaneros and chipotle and the other the reg way with stuffing.

No cooking, cold cuts in a cooler. Driving to Georgia on Thanksgiving to deliver a bunch of furniture and necessities to a relative who's starting over.

Smoking in the Big Green Egg in a brine of apple cider and maple syrup over apple wood!

I'm cooking turkey the same way I have for 25+ years.

Use a convention oven set at 375 degrees, that also cycles in 30% duty cycle microwave.

It cooks in a couple of hours, and results in the juicy moist breast meat.

The best I've ever found and I get raves for it every year.
