Turkey on Big Green Egg
« Reply #-1 on: November 29, 2013, 01:29:11 PM »
Did a 17 pound turkey on the BGE yesterday. Brined Wednesday in basic brine of water,salt,sugar, apple juice and fresh rosemary, thyme and sage. Overnight in refrigerator to dry.  4hr 30 min on egg with one 6" amaz n tube full of apple pellets.
About half the bird leftover, only three for dinner so now I have to find a use for all that
Turkey.

Yes winter has arrived. 8" inches of snow yesterday
Morning.  Should add. The bird was brushed with melted butter and then covered with Jan's rub. Guests
Asked for rub recipe.

Great looking gobbler North!  Hard pressed to beat Jan's Dry Rub.  Been using it for years on poultry and pork butts.

Our version of winter here in Northern California is slow to arrive this year.  Gonna be 66ºF today  ::)

In 1998 when I retired 1st time I said I was never going to spend another full winter in Mn. Things change, moved back in 2004.
