Christmas Bird in Calgary

[Jeremy Calow]

So I was tasked with making a Christmas Eve bird this year for my wife, her brother and his girlfriend... Seems simple enough. Pulled a 14 lbs bird out of the freezer early friday to thaw out. No brine, just seasoned outside with my go to poultry spice blend.

Here is Suzie (my smoker ) puffin away in the -25 degree weather in Calgary this Christmas eve.

Here is the bird pulled after 3.5 hours on the bullet with maple and oak chunks

All sliced up ready to go

Your plate!! Enjoy!

Served with my go to christmas beer of course!
