White meat is reserved for people who think anything other than missionary through a hole in the sheet is deviant. Its a risk averse crowd.

Punching Bag Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 We usually attend Maryland Renaissance Festival and each time one of us will buy a turkey leg. Those events must result in a lot of lame turkeys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaoulDuke79 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 One of my favorite things about this time of year is leftover turkey and stuffing sandwiches with a dab of mayo and pepper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to brine this year, after a somewhat unsuccessful attempt last year. I liquid brined for a couple years, but it's too much work and takes up too much space. For the last few, including this year, I've dry brined. Takes more time, but much easier, and great results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CountDorkula Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 The best part of Turkey day is left over open faced turkey sandwhiches the next day. Toast bread. Little may on the bread. Cover with turkey and load with gravy. Cant wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row_33 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

Punching Bag Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
