Digital_photog ★ Posted November 24, 2021 Author Share #9 Posted November 24, 2021 Is he coming by jet, dirigible or DeHavland Beaver on floats? I need to know so I know if he will be landing in the back yard, at the seaplane base on the lake or at the airport. You need to furnish the details. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital_photog ★ Posted November 24, 2021 Author Share #10 Posted November 24, 2021 smoker was started at 8:30 this morning. With the wind it is a little hard to predict when it will be done.

I've seen many similar with different names on them. I think different stores put their own name on them. This one came from Gander Mountain about 30 years ago. Not sure how much longer it will last. Some parts are getting very rusty. Not outdoors to look at the name right now. It has smoked thousands of pounds of meat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12string Posted November 24, 2021 Share #22 Posted November 24, 2021 Started cooking last night, pureed the pumpkin, banana bread, Vegan brownies, some apple thing Sr. Wife was making We had ordered a fresh turkey from the Amish Market, they screwed up our order, no turkey for us. Then someone dropped off a bunch of fresh turkeys at the church food bank. We already distributed a lot of frozen ones, most people coming in unsolicited don't have the means to cook a turkey, fresh turkeys don't last long, so one came home with us. Turkey for us. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital_photog ★ Posted November 24, 2021 Author Share #23 Posted November 24, 2021 8.5 hours later they are done. Just removed them from the smoker and wrapped them in aluminum foil. I stole a piece of wing and it is very good. The skin tasted a little salty from the tender quick meat cure. After feeding the animals we will carve them off the bones and get them in the roaster and ready for tomorrow. Supper for us will be wings and other meat scraps left over from the nice pieces. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
