I'm going to be smoking a bone in turkey breast. Do I need to brine it? Anyone have suggestions?

Always brine turkey imo

Absolutely this.

It's only 7lbs or so. I dunno what to do for a brine. Otherwise, I am just injecting it and smoking it.

Thanks I'll take a look. I think when I did the two turkey breasts last time I didn't brine them and turned out just fine. So I'll see what I end up doing.

Since the start of the pandemic I took to brining all of my meats and I notice a difference when I don’t.

I don’t use the same method for all recipes - dry brines for some, wet for others, buttermilk for chicken, etc.


Just throwing that out there

I haven't done much brining except when I do a dry brine for smoked fishes or the one time I did a full turkey.

Made schnitzel and roasted potatoes tonight. Also a bit of kielbasa and sauerkraut. 🤌🤌🤌

 

[Jesus]

 

[Jesus]

Kielbasa was long gone. There was like 3 little coins of it on the plate.

This video.

 

[Jesus]

That's how you fucking make vegetables. Dude has a few very informative videos.

 

[Jesus]

I still taste the potatoes, and it's not a bad thing. I'm dreading brushing my teeth tonight because I'm gonna lose the flavor.

Are they still quality? Not shaming on your purchase, genuinely curious. I buy my meats from a rancher now, but I've done Omaha in the past.

Wife got me a package for Xmas, did the sirloin last night. While it was good it's not it my fav cut so it's hard to say. I would have preferred a big ribeye myself. Kit came with chops, chicken fried steak, scalloped potatoes, some apple dessert.

 

[Boing]

Meat coma incoming.

13 lbs of prime rib to smoke tomorrow.

Christmas day I'm smoking some turkey.

And then sometime next week I'm smoking a 20lb brisket.

Making braised Italian chicken thighs. Pics inc

Chicken thighs with prosciutto stuffed under the skin, browned in pan, braised in marinara, then topped with fresh mozzarella and broiled and then fresh basil on top

the apple desserts are the best things that come in that complete box.
