I have a nephew in University in Ottawa, youll have to send some smoke his way. I have taught them what good BBQ is all about. His brother wont order ribs in a restaraunt because they just aren't as good as Uncle Daves WSM Smile

Well Tim, last week was a 10 lb pork shoulder that spent 12 hours in the smoker over maple, along with a whole chicken. The family unit and I are debating smoking the turkey for thansgiving, as stuffing is a high priority for some people. May have to work out a compromise.

Cris, check out this recipe for a compromise that might just work out for you. Better get started on it today though in order to get it brined.

Dave,

Thanks for pointing out that recipe. Turkey is in the brine, it's cool enough around these parts that I have it in a bucket surrounded by chunk ice out in the shed.

welcome Cris.

I am from Montreal, only 2 hrs away from ottawa. I went to Ottawa a few times and really like it. I really like walking around the parliament of Canada when i am there, nice view on the water and lots of history.

No Problem Cris. If I do a chicken I either do this recipe, or I get lazy and just do a Beer Can Chicken

Hi Elmo,

I grew up in Montreal although I left almost
30 years ago, lots of history there too. Plus you have the bagel factories, Montreal smoked meat(love it from the Main)and the best pizza!

This is getting to you too late...but for next time, do your stuffing on the side in a separate dish. It's easier to cook a turkey when it isn't stuffed. A lot of people just do the stuffing separately.

I grew up in Ottawa. Love the city.


Smoke'em if you got'em.

Hey Chris, How did that turkey turn out? I'm had to cancel my turkey for thanksgiving because of a conference. But I'm smokin my 15 pounder next weekend. The weekend after, I'm smoking enough pulled pork for about 75 people.

Tim, the turkey was amazing. Last year I did a basic brine then smoked over cherry wood, this year the addition of the apple juice brine really bumped the flavour. I may try fresh cider or pear juice for the next brine.
