To start my BBQ! I got a free turkey that the wife wants me to bbq it. It was either practice now and see how it turns out or hopefully not ruin thanksgiving later!

I got plenty of beer, and sunscreen.

I'm kinda nervous, to see how it turns out. So, we'll see what happens!

I get pics of it happening!

Later!!

5 AM every workday... on weekends I get lazy and sleep in, sometimes until 6 or so.

Oh snarkin big is that turkey!!??

It's all I can do to drag myself out of bed by 7am! No way I'm getting out of bed at 5am for a turkey!!

And BTW - you do know that turkey cooks faster on a grill than in the oven? Or are you smoking it?

7 am everyday for me! typically get up by 6 am on a workday but sleeping in is 7 for me..

How did the turkey turn out? I'd imagine you had to cook it at a really low temp for ALLLOONG time.

We want details!

Inspiring minds want to know

kneedownnate · « **Reply #10 on:** Jul 16, 2008, 07:59:33 PM »

Details? I want pics and a sample!

how did the turkey work out?

I wake up @ 0230, start work @ 0400

Well, first of all, it was a 20 pound bird.

It went on the grill to be slow smoked at 6 am. Well, to all the internet bbq sites, they said at least 30 minutes for each pound. Well, 10 hours later!!

Just like predicted, it came out of the bbq/smoker.

And I had some help from time to time!

And in between stokin the coals, wood for smoke, and beers, I'd try to slip in a nap or two!

It turned out really good.

And next time I'll have the wife get a smaller bird.

No, Nate, I don't think there will be any left for you to sample. Just look at the picture and smell the smoke filled air there!

$I\'m Down$ bummer, looks frickin great! Different smoke man, this tastes

The smoke hasn't bothered me in the past few weeks, I actually like it, but we've had still air and it's bad enough tonight that I actually had to shut off the swamp cooler. It was raining ash on us at work half the day too!

Shoot, I just noticed the chair. Te51levin built one of those eons ago and it's probably still sitting at stocker's house

Stocker · « **Reply #20 on:** Jul 19, 2008, 05:59:57 PM »

Mrs Stocker says Te51levin took that chair and it was at their apartment, so it's probably in Oregon now, unless he got rid of it.

However, I do have one similar to Cheesie's! Mrs Stocker gave it to me for Father's Day this year, so I'd have something (other than a plastic bucket) to sit on in the back yard while spending time with the dawg.
