Been doing the Alton Brown recipe for years and gotten better each time. I don't even like turkey but I like cooking for people!

Alton sure has the best recommendations for getting that beautiful mahogany skin. Perfectly executed! Nice cook.

Nice work!! I cook for the people too, and presentation everything. You nailed it! That bird looks beautiful.

A good turkey. Congrats to you.

I just found out Alton Brown has a new YouTube channel. His first video is an update to his turkey recipe from all those years ago:

Thawing in brine with one of those igloo coolers is going to improve my life so much next year.

I also really like the gravy prep and cooking on a wire rack above the gravy ingredients.

The spinning platform with those fans is such a cool idea also.

Thank you for sharing he had an update

That’s a beautiful colour on that bird, great work!

[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 6 points 19 hours ago

Thanks! My 5th year doing it and I'm super proud of this, even if I won't eat it.

It's life for our taste buds.

Looks amazing congrats!

Looks great. My best was for Canadian Thanksgiving this year, which was about a month ago. Looks like we both had a productive Thanksgiving dinner this year, for our respective Thanksgivings.

[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 6 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Awesome! I'm thankful we both did good! Also thankful you guys haven't just broke off and floated away yet.

[–] BurntWits@sh.itjust.works 3 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

I’m thankful you guys haven’t tried to invade us yet.

How long did you last until climax?

[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 5 points 19 hours ago

It was a slow 3.5 hour edge session.

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago

That's a good looking bird

[–] Gingerlegs@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

I assume my invitation was lost in the mail…

[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

Shit, I invited everyone on Lemmy, but I accidentally typed Lenny instead. That explains a lot actually...

[–] aeternum@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 15 hours ago
[–] naticus@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

You invited this guy but not us?!!

[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago

It was just me my wife my daughter and Lenny so there's plenty left
