Halloween Thanksgiving

[Andy Linn]

Inspired by Case's thread: https://tvwbb.com/threads/pre-halloween-thanksgiving.79102/

Just got my breast on! I am in the mood for some turkey/practicing for the big show/getting a carcass ready for my Thanksgiving stock.

I've had my stock simmering for (3) hours now and just put the breast on. Still had half a basket of used coals plus an additional small chimney. Using KBB (filled the basket to the top with fresh before dumping the chimney) and a nice chunk of oak. I am cooking at 305 degrees right now... hopefully the temp recovers close to 325, we'll see. Running wide open.

Well you better make a batch of these to go with that turkey. Its the only way we make stuffing anymore. If you don't have silicone muffin cups these bake up just fine in a lightly greased muffin tin.

Stuffin muffins

Stuffin Muffins in the oven. We used a box of stuffing mix. Follow directions on the box. Added celery, chopped pecans, diced onion. Home made chicken stock melted butter and an egg. Put into the muffin cups and bake. Last year we baked in the muffin tins and got crispy all around. Yum! This...

In a large saute pan, melt butter, stir in flour, and cook for 1 minute. Slowly add in warm turkey stock 1/2 cup at a time until gravy is desired consistency. Add in spices and adjust seasoning, if necessary.

Shot of my stuffing mix. I should pivot to muffin tins but I am lazy...

Temp held steady at 330. Once the breast got to 160 internal, I flipped the door to create a heat inducing gap. Just chasing skin texture.
