I do love a good smoked turkey. Thus was my charge this Thanksgiving, and I think I carried it off rather nicely. Of course, the 16 pounder from Trader Joes--organic, never frozen, no antibiotics, and pre-brined--probably helped matters, but after 7 hours in the smoker over hickory chunks, we had a nice, smoky brown bird.
We finished most of the leftovers tonight, after eating on them for 3 days straight. Had to sneak a pizza in there for a little culinary break, and (I can't believe I'm saying this) I'm really glad that there is no more pumpkin pie left for breakfast tomorrow.
And now, back to the grind tomorrow...although this month always seems like a wash.
