Practice Turkey Cook...
« on: November 11, 2018, 09:46:53 AM »

Practice turkey breast cook went well.  Dry brined 6 hours in the fridge, boiling water trick on the skin, then into the MAK at 380* till 165 in the middle.  Skin came out wonderfully crisp and bite thru and meat was moist.  Next time I may try 400*.  Thanks and take a look.

I need to look up that boiling water trick and try it.  Will someone please post a link to it, if it isn't too much trouble?

Thanks for the post search.  I'm in the middle of cooking a huge batch of Beef Stroganoff for my birthday dinner with kids and grandkids and didn't want to take the time.

I may try this for our neighborhood get-together for Thanksgiving.  There will be three turkeys.  I will smoke one and the other two will be done in ovens.  I want to make sure the smoked one is the best of the three.

Any suggestions on what seasoning to use?
