Well, its that time of year again folks. Just wondering what everyone's way of Q'n there turkey is. I've done one before and it came out awesome but it's been awhile. I used the self-basting recipe on this site. It was delicious. Couple questions. I know everyone rubs their poultry on the outside. Has anyone ever tried seperating the skin(just working your hand between meat and skin) and then rubbing the meat directly? It seems that whenever you rub the skin, and you don't eat the skin, that you cannot taste the rub. I'm just wondering if doing this may affect anything else. I'd also like a crispy skin, how do I do this? I've read where you take the turkey off the WSM then toss it in the oven for a bit. How long should it be in the oven, at what temp, and at what temp should I take the bird off the WSM? Oh yes, I will be cooking two 12-14lb. butter balls for thanksgiving dinner.... Thanks all..
