Hello from Florida

[trooper725]

Greetings from the land of newly weds and nearly deads...My name is Bill I live in Kathleen Florida which is nestled between Tampa and Disney. I have lived here all of my life. I currently own a Green Mountain pellet grill (Daniel Boone) and really like it I have had it two years and I installed a Smoke Daddy, that I also really like. I will cook on anything from an open fire to dutch ovens, but I like the smoker the best of all. I came accross this site by the use of Google, and I get almost all of my recipies from this site or my dog earred BBQ cook-book. The first thing I tried from this site was the cranberry brined turkey. I was a little shocked at the nice shade of pink it was when it came out of the brine. But it cooked nice and brown and was very good. Hope to learn a whole lot more......

[color= rgb(24, 24, 24)]LMAO if ya want a REALLY pink turkey add some red food coloring to the brine. I did that for a cranberry brined turkey I smoked. My BIL(brother in law) refuses to eat pink turkey meat even though the pink tinge is from the cure and smoke, so I made a REALLY pink turkey. [/color]

My youngest son looked at the pink turkey out of the brine and just said whaaaat! But he had no problem eating it.....I will be at the gathering, I live in central Florida but have a place on Lake Seminole Georgia and will happen to be on vacation during that time, so I will see y'all there....
