Cool 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.

Hey Big Biscuit,

nice job on the turkey. Glad to have found you on this forum as well. Now how about posting pics of that striper on the other forum.

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.
