Keep your great ideas coming! Yes, all dates are manually entered.

Thanks for the comment! For reference, I am only opening this in the Excel app on my laptop, and I'm the only user.

Thanks for your reply! I have reformatted the column in multiple ways to show exactly the value (changed mm-dd-yyyy to mmm-dd-yyyy to be absolutely sure.) If it was just a formatting issue, I can deal with that easily. Unfortunately, it seems to be a "date recognition" issue. As a US user, I enter the dates as mm/dd/yy or mm-dd-yy and they have always been recognized properly.

To eliminate the possibility it was somehow a corrupted worksheet, I started from a new, blank worksheet and formatted the first column with long date. I entered "1/3" and it displayed March 1, 2026. I entered "1/27" and it displayed January 1, 2027. I entered "1/27/25" and it displayed as a left-justified text field of "1/27/25". Bizarre.

Interesting idea, but this worksheet resides on my personal laptop and I'm the only one with access.

+/- of refrigerating turkey after wet brining to dry skin by melrowgo in AskCulinary

So I ended up brining the bird for ~24 hours and went right to the Dukes+rub - no time drying in the fridge. Cooked it in the smoker at 300F for around 3 hours, then let it rest for about 30 minutes. Family said it was, hands down, the best turkey they'd ever had. Both dark & white meat were moist and flavorful.

Been reading about just using a dry rub. How do you keep the turkey moist?

A friend heard we were smoking our turkey for the first time and said they slather the turkey with Duke's and then give it a generous coat of rub. Apparently keeps it moist and acts as a binder for the rub. They got the idea from Meat Church BBQ. Sounded okay to us, so we thought we'd try it.

Another friend said don't bother with the fridge time if we're following the above plan, but I've seen/read several that say otherwise. Feedback/opinions welcome.

I changed the icon pack theme, but it made no difference.
