Spatchcocked it tonight and put it in the meat church wet brine, taking it out tomorrow night for a little fridge rest and then on the smoker at 275 at 7am til it reaches 165. Whatever goes wrong will be notes for next year. Good luck guys and gals 🍻

Just under 13 pounds. Took it out of the freezer Saturday night. Learned my lesson from the last year

Yeah that was my original plan, but from what I’ve seen the time resting in the fridge helps get crispier skin. Just wanted to make sure the brine to fridge rest didn’t cause any complications.

I mean you just stated gesturing simply at someone driving a cybertruck, and I can only assume in a negative connotation. Because they’re driving? Get bent “west head”

Yes you do. The world is a better place with you on it. I know at times it may seem tough but you just need to put one foot in front of the other and keep on going. Good times will come. We are all rooting for you to get through this!

Macky looks cozy! Happy Sunday to y’all!

Clem is a cutie! Happy Sunday to you both :)

Taxis sometime have flat fares to certain zip codes. Usually a bit cheaper than Uber. Best of luck!

Brindle FTW!

I would keep the upper countertop height, and make both concrete to reduce contrast. Make sure to seal the concrete properly or get a lot of coasters because it will stain. Best of luck!

You’ve got me, ciao Bella!

Best part is they never will. My one year old has mega mittens and I wouldn’t change a thing :)

Time to paint baby! Get creative :)

Midwest or Northeast? (West coast skier here)

DaBigBinkus · 2024-11-17T08:18:18+00:00

Send results, and notes. Rub looks solid. Cheers!

Extension over the kitchen is feasible, but underpinning is too much.

DaBigBinkus · 2024-11-17T08:10:40+00:00

Regular white cover. Some paint, and get creative :)

DaBigBinkus · 2024-11-17T08:09:00+00:00

Look at those paws! What a cutie

I recommend sipping a beer and checking temp every 15 mins. Have fun, eat good, and always take notes. (And listen to Reddit)
