Football n' Smoked Turkey!
What a way to spend a Sunday. Just put the cornbread for the stuffing in the oven. Decided to use the herb butter under the skin instead of a bbq rub. I salted the the bird yesterday and just took it out rinsed it and patted it dry. It'll be going on the wsm in an hour. I hope this works out it being my first turkey and all. Any last minute tips?

Just had some blackened striped bass I caught for lunch. It was smack yo' mamma in the mouth delicious. Who'd of thunk getting your cast iron skillet white hot putting melted butter and a heavily seasoned piece of fish in there would have been a great idea. Turkey looks good too.

No I didn't brine it. I salted it the night before and slathered it in herb butter. Slicing it up in a minute.

Mike I wish I had thought of taking a pic of the blackened striper. I've done it before and I'm always impressed with how good it comes out.
