Thanks Mike. I made two turkeys. One on the smoker, and one on the
rotisserie on the Weber. Both were great, but the one on the smoker got the
best reviews. I overcooked the rotisserie bird a little because some guests
were about an hour late.

John,

Smoked turkey is one of the best. I'd love to get my hands on a
pheasant to try. What wood did you choose for your smoke? For a
turkey, I like a 50/50 mix of hickory and cherry.

I did the deep fry this year to save time. Still very good.

On Topic (maybe) - I also frequently smoke kingfish and dolphin. It's
great to eat warm, cold, or mixed with some cream cheese and spices in a
fish dip.

We had to cut down a hickory a couple years ago, and it is slowly getting
used in the smoker. I also like mesquite, but now that I've got all the
hickory, I don't buy anything else.

In Germany I'd get apple wood when the Germans pruned their apple trees.
Apple makes a great wood for a turkey.

I've smoke salmon many times, but never any of the other fish you
mentioned. The salmon takes only about an hour on the smoker, and we love
it!

JohnH,
What kind of Smoker do you use. I had one similar to this:

and it was such a pain to clean up, I finally stopped using it.


If I had extra space on the porch, and still eat meat often, I would like a
smoker that didn't require the clean up after each use. Similar to this:

I loved the taste of chicken and fished smoked.

Dan,
That is sick, I can't believe you would eat Flipper.







ps - I know it was the fish Dolphin and not the mammal dolphin, but I
couldn't help myself. ; )

No, it was a Bottlenose dolphin. I just happen to have a HUGE smoker.
The dorsal fin was sold to a local shop that makes beautiful handbags.

We had our first dusting last night! This morning there was still some snow
on the deck, which made carrying the bird out to the smoker in bare feet a
miserable experience!
