this year's Christmas Turkey has been in the smoker for about an hour .... by midnight I hope to have the cooking temp stabilized and will let her slow smoke until morning .... hope to have her hit 180 internal degrees somewhere around mid morning :D

Who cares about turkey when you got all that bacon.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Sounds delicious 😋. I miss having a grill/smoker. I live in an apartment and can't have one.

in the real world, when you start cooking while wondering if you have sufficient fuel, you probably don't .... I awoke just before 4AM and checked our wireless thermometer we use to monitor running our smoker out in the garage .... it only took a quick glance to tell that the flame was out .... I have 9 tanks of various sizes and all of them were out .... with our camper moved to our son's, those tanks couldn't be accessed quickly .... thankfully, our daughter's camper is parked on our lot .... it only took a few minutes to remove one of its 30 pounders and connect it to our smoker .... she's now once again smoking away .... 8-)
