P250UA5How are you cooking your turkey?
Leftover turkey got made into turkey pot pie.
My wife makes a great chicken pot pie, but this blew that out of the water, different recipe as well.

armedprofBrined in saltwater and apple cider for 4 days
Stuffed with granny Smith apples and an orange
Smoked on my Weber kettle with charcoal and applewood
Came out perfect, just like usual. Not much left of the 20 pounder.

jprebbI butchered the turkey before I cooked it and dry brined it in the frig for 24 hours. Fried everything skin-side down on the stove until the skin was crispy. I stuck a probe thermometer in one of the breasts and roasted it at 450° and pulled them and the wings at 155°. I let the thigh and drums go to 190°.
This is the way for me from now on.

ARmanWell, nor turkey for me this year. I was solo, so I made a duck instead.
Roast duck, roasted new potatoes, roasted acorn squash with honey/maple syrup butter glaze. With shiitake mushrooms, portobello, and Bella mushrooms and onions, with butter, white wine, soy and Worcestershire sauce.
The duck was stuffed with apple, pear, fig date, celery, carrots and onions. Rubbed down with salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, nutmeg. It was basted with the honey/maple syrup butter at the end.
It was delicious.

Outstanding! I like creative left-overs.
I got the carcus and bought some more wings to roast, made stock for more dressing and the rest for soup.

We used the same recipe. Omitted the ginger, apple & cinnamon though.
Brined for about 15hrs, not a dry bit of turkey to be had.
24lb bird, total about 3.5hrs in the oven.
Us too. I never really cared for turkey until my wife tried it Alton's way. It's amazing. So juicy and the sandwiches from leftovers are the best.

jhe888My wife made regular roasted turkey, and I made some of the leftovers into pot pie the other day. It was good.

slabsides45Dried it off well, left out in fridge for 24 hours to crisp the skin, salted and buttered, then covered in tin foil and cooked for 10 hours at 200, uncovered and cooked until brown at 450.
We do it that way to get it super moist!

Smoked Turkey was far above and beyond the baked one. So good... My 9 year old son was beside me as I carved it. Another piece! Another! Skin is soooo good!!
