Turkey Time

[Mark Vader]

I don't care, it's turkey, let me have it!

When I eat the dark meat, I always have higher expectations, as far as how good it will taste.

Dark meat is held to a higher standard than white meat and its not fair.

I'd prefer the light but I've learned to see how it has been cooked before choosing.

 

The last few were botched bad and the dark was the only thing not of toothpick consistency.

I mean, all you can really do with white meat is make sandwiches and lather them with mayo.  One trick pony.

 

Dark meat is much more versatile.

There are so many inappropriate jokes sitting here for the taking...

My mother-in-law came from Hong Kong and she cooked a turkey in the wok and it was the best turkey I have ever had. She never cooked one before so I guess she cooked it like a goose, only bird that size in market there.

If you want truly crispy skin cook it in a wok - the skin came out like Peking duck!

On a separate note, do you guys brine? Going to brine  this year, after a somewhat unsuccessful attempt last year. 

Trying out a “dry brine” (kosher salt, cracked black pepper, brown sugar) this year and smoking for 4 hours. Will let you know how it turns out!
