thanks!
I brined the big bird in a salty garlic greek yogurt mixture. then it was 3 hrs in the smoker, with a tall sapporo shoved into it's opening, followed by a few hrs in the oven. (additional oven time was probably unecessary but we went bargain hunting while it was in the smoker and I wasn't there to verify it hit the target temp. twiced cooked turkey is probably drier than once cooked, yet it was surprisingly not bad)
it was a thanksgiving potluck with friends.
this hippie tried to fancy himself up with a tie and dress up his soup with white truffle oil...
great food, drink and friends were abundant.
even had a sing-along with "blister in the sun"
