Turkey Lollipops and Chicken halves.

The Turkey Lollipops were a huge hit for the Tailgate Party so the DIL's birthday was another opportunity. She asked, I delivered...

I again used Amazing Ribs Disney brine and Cajun Shake. The Chicken was brined in Mad Hunky Poultry Brine and Chef Merito Chicken Seasoning.

The turkey legs started like this

Dusted and on the 22" WSM with a direct fire. No water pan...

Unfortunately, the Cowboys game came on and the photos shoot stopped there. It was a lot of fun havin the DIL over with the whole fam damily and big Cowboys win!

The brine is pretty simple. I wonder if I could harvest the drums from the Thanksgiving Turkey, cook the turkey separate (probably smoked) and cook the drums as you have done here?

Nice cook Dwain, great photos. Excellent links
 
Hi Dwain, I see you used 9 turkey legs, did you change the ratio of pink salt,or did they total up to 3lbs?
thanks for sharing. great job.
