As an experiment, RC smoked a turkey on our Holland grill. The fallback position was ol’ Smokies in the crockpot, so the pressure was on. One mistake she made was rubbing olive oil on the outside…..
Imagine the ashes that covered Pompeii that fateful day or the horror of the fires burning uncontrollably in the western United States.
Now picture a phoenix (or turkey) rising from the ashes, perfectly tender and with hints of mesquite.
Thanks to her soaking the skin in brine the night before, Thanksgiving was saved.
