Smoked Yard-Bird :)
« on: April 26, 2010, 01:08:13 PM »
Got up early this morning and started prepping a 6 lb. roaster and some fresh spicy chicken sausages for the smoker.  After all the spices and prepping was completed I placed a few healthy sized chunks of aged hickory wood in  the smoker and fired her up.  Almost 7 hours later, after having to endure that heavenly aroma all day, pulled the yard bird and sausage from the smoker, let it rest a best, then the wife and I feasted  :)   The meat just about fell off the bone  :)  I wish I could describe the aroma and the taste to you but those of you who partake of such delicacies already know and don't need any descriptions    :emoticon:

I figured this was kinda airgun related as all day I kept thinking about g-hog hunting and letting the next g-hog I get see the inside of my smoker.  :)

Why must a critter be let to see the inside of a smoker? Because it is an honor for said critter to be caressed by the hickory incense of that most hallowed of culinary precincts. The smoker might be Hellish in that it possesses heat and smoke, but make no mistake: it's definitely critter heaven








Keep on postin' them food pics, Jeff. And in this particular instance, I'd be happy if you saw fit to give me the bird. The tasty, tasty bird.

Yea, though I walk through the garden in the shadows of pests,
I will fear no squirrel: For thou art with me;
thy scope and thy trigger, they comfort me.
