Donnie, please don't be offended. After all, it's Sunday.

Looks good. Sounds like a good place for some smoke. I end up doing
that on the gas grille but it is really not a smoker I do throw
hickory chips in there tho.
I am not that much on the breast meat tho I am a leg man so I cook
thigh quarters. It is not spatchcocking tho. I just "Obamize" them
(remove the backbone)

I'd do nothing but thighs and legs, but my wife won't eat them. She has to have the white meat.

My wife says she just likes white meat but when it is boned out, she
takes the thighs. I don't use white for any kind of soup type thing
but I do use it in parmesan

My wife makes a 'chicken chili' in the crockpot with chicken breasts. Have to admit it's pretty damn
good.

Never did chicken chili but we make turkey chili. It is the way to get
rid of a few pounds of left over turkey without eating sandwiches for
a week.

I've bought the ground turkey and used it for turkey chili several times. I prefer the beef, but
there really isn't much difference in the taste of the final product.

That is why just about any kind of meat will work.
I wouldn't buy turkey just to make chili but we do cook a turkey
fairly often throughout the year and it is a great way to use the
leftover meat. Same with beef or pork roast.
Chili was originally just the pot that hung on the back of the chuck
wagon and they threw in whatever they came up with. It was always
cooking.

It ****es me off that the stores carry fresh turkey only at Thanksgiving. I'd cook one three or
four times a year if they could be had. Giant will special order one, but the cost is prohibitive.
$45 for a small fresh one is ridiculous. I've got a couple in the freezer from the Christmas sales
though. Have to admit the Traeger pellet grill does a nice job on turkeys.
