how did you guys/gals cook your Turkey?

How did you guys/gals cook your Turkey this year?  I brined mine and will repeat. It was a 19 pounder since we had 12 adults and 3 kids. Brine consisted of:

 

11 cups water

6 garlic cloves

.25 cup allspice

2.5 cups kosher salt

2 large white onions

Tablespoon whole cloves

.25 cup olive oil

2 cups chicken broth

3 celery stalks cut in half

A double deuce of Samuel Smith Nut Brown Ale

2 cups ice

 

Add everything but beer and ice in a pot and boil. Pull off the heat and add the beer and ice.  Once cool, add the turkey to a brine bag and pour the brine in. Let it marinate for a good 24 hours.

 

I cooked the this one on the grill on indirect heat.  About 350 for 3.5 hours until it was 160 degrees and let it rest for 30.

 

Absolutely stellar turkey. Juicy and flavorful.

Brined and roasted. I don't really care for smoked poultry.

 

Brine was a gallon of vegetable stock, cup brown sugar, cup salt, candied ginger, peppercorns and allspice. stuffed with a cut up apple and onion, sage and rosemary.

 

The recipe is Alton Brown's, he's my hero

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
