Prepped the turkey for the smoker. Did a dry brine and have it hanging out in the fridge. Also started making chicken and turkey stock as well as ham hock broth for the collard greens. Trying to get most of the cooking done today. So tomorrow I just have to smoke the turkey and roast the ham.

You'll have to let us know how the turkey turned out. I was gonna deep fry this year but didn't get a fryer in time so we're doing a small one in the oven. We're gonna try double smoking a ham, we've heard good things.

You know I'll post pics. I'm going to try something new this time. I want to hide all the herbs and spices under the skin. I'll be making a compound butter to stuff up in there. The thought behind it is, I don't want my turkey to look bbq'd. I'll be watching it and if it looks like it's getting too dark I'll tent it with foil. To keep it from getting that overly smoked look. I want it to be golden and crispy. Like this

Instead of this

Both are pics from the web, not mine.

And I still might throw the ham in the smoker too!

I wasn't going to do anything for tomorrow and yet somehow this ended up in the fridge (along with the ham LOL). An 18 lber for me and the dogs.

Prepping for a beer can turkey. Love shoving a 22 ouncer of modelo up the turkeys butt.

The turkey enjoys it as well.

Oh and I just got back from opening day on the ski mountain. Got up at 6am and made sure I was on first chair.

Fresh pow turns before the gaper tourons were even outta bed. Now they can toil with my leftovers. :)

Pebbles realized it's warmer in the house than the garage and now she doesn't want to go back outside. Wife isn't happy about it but I clean up after her. Here she is helping herself to a corn muffin.
