Plans include a BBQ Turkey, Smoked Turkey, Baked Turkey and someone is bringing a ham cooked somehow. All the trimmins; dressing, sweet potato pie, corn, green bean cassorole, sweet potato pie, triffle, punch, sweet potato pie, wine ($2 Chuck???), ambrosia, merlot, sweet potato pie and probably some stuff to nibble on if hunger persists.
For the BBQ Turkey (18 - 22#), been thinking of doing it this way...
The Baked Turkey (18 - 22#) will be the "Two Hour Turkey", a first for me. Look at
FMB (North Mexico)
Damn man, I couldn't handle that many people at one time! I think my family would kill eachother! LOL
So, what is the purpose of brining the bird?
punkin:
I'm a vegetarian... about 30 years now.
It is supposed to add flavor and moisture. Check out
FMB (North Mexico)
I gonna deep-fry two turkeys if it don't rain (fat chance). My brother and sister in law are driving my nephew Billy down here to see me in the Peachtree Desert (Alanta) from Pennsylvania with their diesel Jetta. We're gonna shoot up the birds with spices that'd make Barry Bonds cry. Then we're going to boil the birds in pure Georgia peanut oil. For dessert we're going to say a few prayers, do a rain dance, and then throw measured amounts of potash and some of my special XXX-kick-ass-in-a-jug whisky into the hot turkey pot and pray to the gods of transesterification to smile upon us. The leftovers just might succomb to the powers of Dr. Rudy himself and submit themselves into becoming ethyl ester biodiesel. If they pass a quick 3/27 test they might jump into the 'dub's tank all on their own and kick some yankee ass back up highway 41 to the wrong side of the Mason Dixon. Billy can stay.
I think I'm going to the a.a.d.t. dinner. Remember this one
Suddenly, without warning, azwiley1 exclaimed (11/18/2007 1:14 PM):
Dunno yet, but it won't be a turkey. Out here in Oz, you practically have to mortgage your house to get a turkey.
We're still looking at options. A roast or chicken on the barbie. Trying to talk hubby into some yabbies (big crayfish) but so far no luck.
It'd be different, anyway.
It's hard to believe T-day's just around the corner. It's going into summer here, and as usual already hotter than heck. Getting close to
100f later this week.jmc
Dang, you kept that?!?!
Denny
well I'm cheating a bit, going over to my sister's house for thanksgiving dinner all of my family will be there and my sister's in-laws too. so that should be fun. i think they are doing a baked turkey, oyster dressing, green beans, mashed taters & some kinda gravy, oh yea granny is cooking her famous pecan pie. for that dinner.
then Friday my wife wants me to fry a small turkey so her sister and nephew can come over since they live down here and wasn't invited to my sister's house. so we will do a small dinner then too. I'm afraid i will be turkey'd out by the time we drop that one in the oil though.
Brining adds a bit of moisture and flavor to just about any meat. It is basically a marinade without all the extra crap.
Anyone doing a Deep-Fried turkey (besides me)

About 6 months ago The friggin' rabbit made some calls to where we thought he was living. We used phone information to obtain the numbers. One was never answered and one said they never heard of him iirc. It sorta became a dead end after that. Imo, I believe he may have suffered a stroke or worse. His posting towards the end indicated something real wrong with his thought process. Or perhaps he fell off the wagon and went to booze again.
Seeing as I have a bunch of spare time between trips to the beach, so I'll look around some more and see what I can come up with.
Haven't heard a word outa Budd since he disappeared from here. Tried a couple of phone numbers and still nothing. I wish him the best whatever happened..

We were in your neck o the woods Thursday, Larry... Did the T-day shopping in Yuma... Planning on a quiet day at home with another couple, turkey, ham, yams, pie, etc.. They don't have electricity yet, as we didn't last T-day, so we're rolling the karma through.. Last year we were at a friends home because they knew we didn't have power yet..
I'm doing my first art show here on the 24th and 25th so I'm going to be pretty busy this week...
Hope everyone has a great one!

His yahoo profile is still there but it hasn't been updated since February. He and his wife still have a phone number listed in the Moab white pages at the same address that's shown on his yahoo profile. I just searched his name in the Moab Times-Independent and got nothing.
Maybe call the number??
Roy
It's the same number that I gave you before. I think it's one of them Denny already tried.
Okay, I think that is the one that wasn't answered. Did you grab a street address?
