    It is done.  I got through the temp zone in plenty of time.  Finished it in the oven at about 11am.  I put it on smoker at 5:15 this morning.  It smells great.

    It was definitely cool.  It was 4 in the morning when I was prepping it.  Still had some cobwebs due to some spirits last night.  It was cool, but I don't remember my hands getting cold.  Brine was salt, pepper, brown sugar, minced garlic, worcestershire and two gallons water.

    It is a 22lb turkey.  I thawed it in the fridge for a couple days and then I brined it for the last 36 hours in a bucket in the fridge.  I was concerned that it may not be completely thawed since it so big so I set the bucket in my kitchen for eight to ten hours.   Took it out of brine, prepped...

    May have a problem! Please help....

    I have been reading a ton of these threads about smoking turkeys and stumbled across a couple of threads that people referenced the 41degree/4 hours to get to 135 rule.  I did not know about this until after I had thawed the turkey.  I may have violated this "rule".  My question is, if this rule...

    Bone-In Pork Shoulder Smoke

    It is a pretty big injector. I cooked the bacon and then chopped it up pretty good. As for the rest of the stuffing...I leave the bacon out then I cook the finely chopped onions. I added the bacon back in with a 1/4 cup Pinot Noir along with the baby spinach leaves that I had already...

    Bone-In Pork Shoulder Smoke

    This is my first time to share anything here on the board. Special thinks to Meowey for the very informative post that I have tweaked to my liking. This is the third time I've done this and the previous two turned out great. I rub down the meat with mustard and my favorite rub. This time though...

    Image help

    I've been around for a while now, I just haven't participated much as far as sharing info. Anyway, wanted to share a pic or two of what I had on the smoker but when I tried to attach a pic to a new thread the picture was too large for the forums to handle. 1.48 mb to be exact. Anyone know how...
