    Hey Steve, looks good! YYC local here. On the torch, my preference is the SearPro. It's a small company out of Idaho... benefit is it can stand on its own just on the bottle, you don't need that goofy stand for the sous vide gun and it wont tip over oh and a lot more reasonably priced. Not as cheap as the copies from overseas, but at least profits stay domestic.

    serious eats has a peeking duck recipe and part of the peeking duck process is a day prior they ladle boiling hot fluid on it and the skin tightens up. Uncle roger also had a video for peeking duck recently. maybe a process similar to that would work.
    Hot Boil ladle 24 hrs prior
    Salt & Baking soda 24 Hrs Prior
    Smoke 155
    Blow Torch or Fry it.

    Always awesome videos! I am going to try 150 internal. Normally I go to 155 for my Turkey and Chicken. Also for anyone that might be afraid to use one of the outside fryer's, get a Butterball XL Electric Fryer. They work really good and I have used one for the last 4 years (I smoke a turkey and fry a turkey on Thanksgiving lol). I am going to try your method on frying it this year after I smoke it. I thought about doing it before, but I always was worried about over cooking it. I didn't think of letting it cool down in internal temp then frying it. Not sure why I didn't think of that, I always do it with the brisket before wrapping it lol.

    What about treating it similar to making peking duck? Use an air compressor under the skin, pour hot oil over it, refrigerate for a couple days to dry out the skin.

    I still can't wait to try the blowtorch method this TG. I still haven't had a chance to smoke a brisket since I got the smoke trails rub, but I did use it on some steaks that I reverse seared the other day, and I was really impressed with the crust it gave me. The smoke trails rub is good stuff!

  • @Jason315NY

    Have you tried spraying the turkey with spray oil like Pam before blow torching?

    • @SmokeTrailsBBQ
      @SmokeTrailsBBQ  11 месяцев назад

      I spray baste them with oil throughout the cook so yes, there is already oil on the skin when I torch. But I have not tried basting or spraying right before torching. It could help.

  • @jasonpettis4691
    @jasonpettis4691 11 месяцев назад +1

    Meat tenderizer with either bromelain, papain, or both works wonders to break down turkey skin. You just want to make sure it only goes on the skin.

  • @CoolJay77
    @CoolJay77 11 месяцев назад

    Torch method wins again. Deep frying robs away some of the smoke, but it might still be the tastiest. Worth the try. Congratulation for just about having reached 100K. Great channel.

  • @soumynonareverse7807
    @soumynonareverse7807 11 месяцев назад

    I wonder, legs need a higher doneness than breast. Is there a way to fold the legs underneath the turkey and roast it with a heat course underneath the bird so the legs cook faster than the breast? Alternative beercan Turkey on a UDS maybe as the distance to the fire is very big.

  • @kirichamberlin8988
    @kirichamberlin8988 10 месяцев назад

    Cook it in a bag overnight. When it’s done, take it out, cut open the top of bag to expose the breast skin, & for about 15-25 minutes stick it back in the oven for skin growing & further crispiness.

  • @davidw7531
    @davidw7531 10 месяцев назад

    I'm wondering if the bird had been spatchcocked, would broiling it have worked better since the breast wouldn't be as close to the heat and at risk of scorching. Just a thought!

    Well. A wet brine for 2 days then in the fridge to let skin dry for 2 days then on day 5...cold smoke to your liking,then oil it ,season it and fry it. Soooo about 5 days total. Put frozen turkey in your brine solution and let her do her thing(unthaw and brine) for 48 hours.then pat it dry and put her it the fridge for 48 hours...then cold smoke (keep it colllldd) lol. Then oil it up ,season and fry it. (Oiless fryers are great) and ...well. there ya go. A 5 day process. Lol. No worries. The bird will be fine. Lol. That char broil oiless fryer is great! Them ol turkeys take time to make a good one. And yes. 5 days. Lol

    Would the turkey need a second rest after being fried or would you rest completely, fry, and eat?

  • @ErikBlekeberg
    @ErikBlekeberg 11 месяцев назад

    Question, if you're cooking in the oven and you put some oil or butter on the skin to roast the turkey, can you do baking powder after and then blow torch it to get that skin still nice? Or do you recommend doing baking powder letting it absorb in then adding oil on top of that?

    Would spraying with duck fat before the torch improve the flavor or crispiness?

      @SmokeTrailsBBQ  11 месяцев назад

  • @RTSunny
    @RTSunny 11 месяцев назад

    Alton Brown does a method on his brined turkey after coating it in a neutral oil, where he starts out at 500 for 30 minutes to render the skin (he tucks the wings) and then he covers the breasts in foil as a shield. He then further cooks it at 350. I'm not sure how you'd convert this method for a smoker.

  • @SanJoseDale
    @SanJoseDale 11 месяцев назад +1

    Kudos to you, seems like you are one of a very few RUclipsrs that understand poultry safe temp, is time + temp dependent. 165° for white meat is just no bueno. 145° held for 9 1/2 minutes is safe. So a finish temp of 150° is so much better than 165°. Anyone who uses Sous Vide technique knows that. That said, I’m dark meat all the way.

    No one eats turkey skin. Do a video on how to keep the breast moist while cooking the bird. No one eats the thighs, legs, or wings at Thanksgiving. I no longer cook a whole turkey but smoke two turkey breasts at Thanksgiving. Do a video on smoking frozen brined butterball turkey breasts and keeping them properly cooked internally and moist. Cheers!
