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

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.

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.

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.
