Thanksgiving for Turkey Haters

[spike]

it will be happening at casa spike in two days; picked up the bacon tonight, actually.

i would expect no less from a reveler with such decadent ceiling height

just got word that my sister's in urgent care for a bladder infection on the eve of her scheduled departure to my hood /:

perhaps your turkey is just what the doctor ordered?

my turkey is nothing if not served aside a heaping bowl of my aunt's pork n apple stuffing that my sister's vowed to make

we once had a pecan smoked turkey that had been brined in some kind of pale ale brine

it was amazing, and i aspire to once day present to a table full of guests a similar delicacy

no joke: one of the best meals i've ever eaten

have you unearthed or devised a recipe?

i made sure to bookmark this recipe from sierra nevada i found last thanksgiving. i've sourced pecan wood. all i lack is the smoking apparatus

if you can part with a mere $80 or so, i recommend the brinkmann electric smoker available at your neighborhood home depot.

Came in here to say that good brining completely changes a turkey and makes it really delicious. And doug, I had never really thought about duck at thanksgiving before but that sounds amazing.

just how underage do you suppose the girls are to whom the harry lime account sells e-cigarettes?

I dont want to read through the entire thread (im not sure I can handle someone not loving turkey on turkey day) but has --- stated his meat preference for the holiday?

[bart]

I fucking love turkey skin.

i make sure to constrain my penchant for reflexive contrarianism on the last thursday in november each year

We had steaks tonight.

I asked for A-1 sauce and was told to shut up and be a man. I need to work on being a man.

[spike]

so much turkey left, and it was only a twelve pound bird

[malice]

oh i'll be eating plenty of bird on thursday

describe the best bird you've ever eaten, fowlpal

i feel like we've perfected our turkey recipe, and it's really fairly simple. we use a turkey breast only, but i suppose it'd work for a whole turkey as well.

first in the herb aisle of the produce section, get a "poultry mix" which (i think) is sage, thyme, and rosemary.

cook up 3-4 strips of bacon, reserve the fat. when it cools, crumble/chop it up in to small bits.
chop up all the stuff in the poultry mix.

take about 3/4 stick of butter, the crumbled up bacon, and the chopped up green stuff. mash it together to make a paste. lift the skin of the bird and rub that shit all over.

take your reserved bacon fat and brush over the outside of the turkey.

roast it at whatever the standard roasting temp is (350?) for a couple hours or until a thermometer reads 165 or whatever the non-poisonous temp is.

wait 20 mins before carving.
