Super User South FLA Posted November 28, 2013 Super User Posted November 28, 2013 Want to wish everyone a happy and safe Thanksgiving holiday! So how many of you on here are in charge of cooking duties? This year its my turn to cook the turkey(s) and of course I choose fried. Last night I injected a 12 pound bird with a crazy concoction of Fat Tire Ale, melted butter, cracked pepper and sea salt. The second fryer turkey I injected with Mojo marinade. Can't wait to fry them up! I have backup in case I mess up.....its called Honey Baked! Happy cooking! 1 Quote
BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted November 28, 2013 BassResource.com Administrator Posted November 28, 2013 Ok seriously, my stomach just growled when I read your description! Sounds great! Hope everyone has a safe and fun Thanksgiving! Quote
CayMar Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 South Fla you like that Fat Tire? A friend of mine brought over a box of different microbrews and I couldn't drink any of them except the Fat Tire. That stuff is pretty good. I'm not doing any cooking this year, only eating. Happy Thanksgiving. Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted November 28, 2013 Super User Posted November 28, 2013 First of all Happy Thanksgiving! My wife is in charge of roasting the bird. I am in charge of eating it! Quote

Super User whitwolf Posted November 28, 2013 Super User Posted November 28, 2013 Happy Thanksgiving to all! This year me and my fiance' are combining a Thanksgiving meal with that of our childhoods. She's going to roast a chicken and I'm going to roast some Stump Sound (fresh, my brother delivered yesterday) oysters. Quote
Super User slonezp Posted November 28, 2013 Super User Posted November 28, 2013 Happy Thanksgiving. One smoked and one fried over here Quote
RAMBLER Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 Happy Thanksgiving! Turkey is in the oven full of cornbread giblet stuffing. Made two pumpkin pies, Tuesday. One is gone by now. The cranberries are cooked and the green bean casserole and candied yams will be fixed in a couple of hours. I have the greatest wife. She cleans up all the messes I make in the kitchen. Quote

Happy Thanksgiving. I know what you mean, most of the micro brewery stuff in my opinion doesn't pass the taste test, but I really like Fat Tire, good beer! Quote
Super User flyfisher Posted November 28, 2013 Super User Posted November 28, 2013 As much as i like to cook i never cook for thanksgiving.......I did make a lasagna pan last night though. Quote
tholmes Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 Happy Thanksgiving, all! At my house, one traditional roasted turkey and one smoked (with apple wood) on the Traeger grill. Right now, the house smells of roast turkey, smoked turkey, dressing and pecan pie. We're expecting the crowd ( around 20 people) to start arriving anytime. Tom Quote
speed craw Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 Last year my family did a cajun deep fried turducken Quote
Super User Grizzn N Bassin Posted November 28, 2013 Super User Posted November 28, 2013 Happy Thanksgiving.. roasted !!! Quote
Super User Darren. Posted November 28, 2013 Super User Posted November 28, 2013 Happy TG, y'all. 36 family members together (not everyone, either) this afternoon. Both smoked and oven cooked turkey, but I had the smoked. Football time. Quote
Super User Long Mike Posted November 28, 2013 Super User Posted November 28, 2013 Happy Turkey Day! Last night I put the bird into a brine concoction and let it soak over night. This was a first for me. When I read what Redline Robert said about a brine-soaked turkey in an earlier thread, I just had to give it a try. This morning I put the bird on the Weber over indirect heat and smoked it with Mesquite. My wife and daughter said it was delicious. I had to agree. I couldn't believe how moist it was. Thanks, Robert! Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Deep fried turkey. Quote

Thanks, Robert! Brining a turkey is key. Haven't smoked one yet but now i just might have to. How long did it take and how big of a bird? Quote
Super User Long Mike Posted November 29, 2013 Super User Posted November 29, 2013 There were only three of us enjoying the meal, so the wife bought the smallest turkey I had ever seen - 8.8 lbs. It took less than two hours to cook. Quote

Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted November 30, 2013 Global Moderator Posted November 30, 2013 Happy late Thanksgiving to everyone! No turkey here, the wife is under strict orders by her doctor to do as little as possible to stress her out right now, so we stayed home and relaxed. I made a hashbrown casserole, some green bean casserole, and a caramel apple pie though so we didn't go hungry Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted November 30, 2013 Super User Posted November 30, 2013 This Thanksgiving was extra special being as it was the first night of Chanukah as well. This will not happen again until the year 2070, the catch phrase has been Thanksgivukah. We went up to Jupiter and had a marvelous dinner that included dishes representing both holidays. 1 Quote

My wife is Jewish so we did the same thing here! Quote
