Recent events have kept me away, but I got home Wednesday night, and managed to pick up a Willie Bird from the fire torn region of kalifornia, they have wonderful Turkeys

Put the bird on the 22" WSM at 10:45PM pitt temp 350

Put some poppers on the grill, one hour into the cook

Some snacks

Getting close

Done in four hours

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, I miss this place. Hoping for Christmas to be back home

Yay! Chuck's back, and he brought drinks and food, great looking food at that!
Welcome back!

 

[Dustin Dorsey]

Wowza! Excellent bird! Those poppers look really tasty!

 

[Rich G]

Indeed, Chuck, nicely done! Is it just me, or are those stuffed peppers missing some bacon?!?

Turkey looks terrific Chuck! Boy, when I saw Willie Bird, the nostalgia kicked in. There used to be a Willie Bird farm, right outside Petaluma, on Highway 12 leading over to Schellville. When I was a boy, my folks used to go over there and pick up a fresh turkey for our Thanksgiving every year.

That's how to get a bird started Chuck, a required Bloody Mary, poppers, and then a tasty looking stuffed Turkey.
Glad to see you back.

Happy Thanksgiving Chuck! Amazing cook as usual, but rt now I'd especially go for that bloody mary. Nicely done.


I saw a happy-Horse-Sh** meme earlier today that said "doing your best doesn't = working yourself into some sort of disorder"


(((((don't work too hard))))))
