What's your favorite way to cook the Thanksgiving turkey?

You missed a couple:

Go to the parents / in-laws
Take-out
However the wife chooses to cook it.

 

I prefer Tofurky.

 

If you know how to smoke one, it is a great way to cook it... frying (especially cajun style) is great as well. Tough to choose, both are da shizzle.

 

Trying to derail this into D&D?

 

I haven't yet tasted a fried turkey. Nor have I tasted a homemade smoked Turkey.

Hell, I have to fight my wife tooth-and-nail just to have any turkey at all.

 

I never said I didn't like the taste of meat. A lot of vegetarians do. I just don't want to kill an animal to have that, nor do I want the health problems that often go with eating meat.

 

This is one thing that has seriously made me think about becoming a vegetarian. I have done some major reading on the things done to animals used to produce meat, milk, eggs, and other products for human consumption. The chemicals and hormones they are injected with and given is downright scary. I don't have a problem about the killing part (I hunt often) but the health problem part is what I am beginning to see and find out about.

BTW, I'll take my turkey fried. Had one smoked and friend last year for the first time and I'll take the fried one over smoked or roasted.

 

Get out of here and stop spreading your commie propaganda!!!

I want to try a turducken

 

I have always wanted to try one of those too but a small one at Wal-Mart (and it is very small) cost about $20. It comes in a box smaller than an Eggo box.

 

he he he

 

Deep fry, no contest!

It's an abomination.

 

Roasting.

We had a homemade smoked turkey two years ago. My neighbor had his smoker up and running for the whole neighborhood if they wanted their turkeys smoked. It was fantastic. I no longer live near them, but if I had the smoker to do it, it would be my prefered method.

 

So is your preferred method smoking or roasting?

So turducken is nasty?

 

Ever thought about the amount of chemicals and hormones used to produce large crops of fruits and vegetables?

If it's health reasons you are worried about, you'll need to grow your own.

And if you're gonna grow your own veggies, might as well raise your own cattle or chickens and remain carnivorous.


I'm smoking my turkey this year...hormones and all.

 

If I could afford a competition-size smoker, smoked.

Faking it on my piece o'crap grill, just wouldn't do it justice.
