- This turkey seemed like a difficult task, but a divide and conquer approach was a success! Breaking into primals, dry brining, then smoking half and cooking the rest with a precision cooker and deep fry finish...this was a huge holiday win!
Dry brine (per 4lb of turkey):
1tbs kosher salt
1tsp paprika
1tsp garlic powder
1tsp onion powder
1tsp dried thyme
1 heaping tsp raw brown sugar
Smoked turkey was cooked at 300F. Sous vide thighs at 150F for two hours; breast at 145F for 2.5 hours, then finished for a few minutes in the deep fryer.
If you're looking for a precision cooker, I have the first edition of the Anova. A couple current options are:
amzn.to/47LrDE0
amzn.to/3P72nRf
If you're looking for a vacuum sealer, consider one of these:
amzn.to/3QQ65A9
amzn.to/3E5vzBQ
amzn.to/44tl7za
Get the Meater Plus! It makes tracking your temps so much easier: amzn.to/49NWHVg
That all looked really delicious. Nicely done, and thank you for sharing!
Hey, thanks! It was a fun project. 😁
SWEET JESUS MAN!!! Now thats a TURKEY OR Is Big Bird from sesame street going to show up and milk cartons??? LOL
HAVE YOU SEEN THIS BIRD? 🤣🤣 Let's just say I'm not welcome on Sesame Street, anymore...
My God, what a monster!!!
It was a little intimidating. No way I was going to cook it as one piece!
You’ll be eating leftover turkey sandwiches for 3 years with a dinosaur like that.
Still working on those leftovers, even after making a bunch of turkey soup. Some will be hitting the freezer, for sure.
