This weekend (with my in laws) we are doing a turkey in the roaster and a twice smoked ham on the ProQ.

Nov. 25th (with my folks) we are smoking one turkey (along with a brisket) and tossing another turkey in the big easy.

My plans aren't definate yet but so far a spatchcocked turkey on the drum with smoked sausage under the skin might be what I'm having. (Re-play from last Thanksgiving.) lol

This will be the first year in 51 that I won't be cooking.Probably the wife will put one in the oven, usually have about 16 family members over. This year I think just 2 will come.  ::)

So far I will be smoking 7 turkeys.  2 will go to the fire department and crew that is serving during the holiday.  Ryan is in NJHS (National Junior Honor Society) and they are putting together a full blown, all the fixin's dinner for the fire department here in Anthem.  I am more than happy to cook for that cause.

I will be doing a few for our staff and a couple for us. 

Love the FEC 500

Brine for 24 hours, Cook at 500 degrees for .30 mins, take the temp down to 350 and cook to the right internal temp. Let rest for .30 mins (foiled) Consume lots of wine and watch football! Can't wait!

We're smoking our first turkey this year so it ought to be interesting! Of course we're also cooking one in the oven and deep frying one, just so we have all the bases covered.   :D

Going with the traditional "cooked in the oven" for Thanksgiving but I will be doing one deep fried and one smoked for Christmas Eve dinner as we are having friends over that night.
