Ugh... my mind is so messed up. She looks so content.
I’ve got that exact Nesco unit. I’ve been using since 2019. For the price, the Nesco model that compared to the popular food saver brand, had a much better pump. Less strain on the pump should mean more longevity, right? I’ve run about 15 rolls of cut-to-size bags from cabelas through the Nesco machine and no issues, and no replaced parts.
Can you explain the cranberry(?) dish? It all looks so yummy! ++
That stuffing looks delicious, and the duck is just making my mouth water.
She's an artist!! I love the twill structure of it.
It's stuffing, I just baked it in the bundt pan instead of in the bird. I don't like putting stuff to eat in the bird cavity, I rather like putting things that will steam moisture and aromatic oils into the meat instead. Simmer celery, red onion and cranberries in butter, add chicken stock sage and parsley, pour over dried/toasted brioche and bake in bundt pan.
Deets on the smoking? How was it? Might be the only way I'd ever cook a whole turkey if I was gonna do it again someday. (I just don't care for whole turkey, I've never had a whole cooked bird that wasn't disappointing, parted up turkey can be great though)
It was delish, it rivals deep fried for sure! As a general rule about 30 mins per lb. Smaller birds are better, I think this was a 10 pounder. Done at 165 but you can pull it off a little earler and let it rest and will come up to temp. A little rub and injection prior of course!
THAT'S what you're worried about??? The handwriting?
