Smoked Turkey Breast and my New Slicer

johnl350

I smoked a turkey breast yesterday from the Big Bob Gibsons Cookbook, which Ive said before and Ill say it again, by far the best grilling cookbook I have ever had!!! This is the third time ive done the smoked turkey breast and next time I want to try one of the Dizzy Pig rubs instead of the homemade rub the cookbook uses. I almost have my collection of every Dizzy Pig Rub. Let me know any recommendations on which one to use for a smoked turkey breast. Thanks!!!

Just put the turkey on indirect at 250 deg.


Took the turkey off after internal temp reached 165


My new Waring Pro Professional slicer i got for 60.00


This is half of the turkey sliced!!!

How do you like the slicer?
I believe our local Academy Sports store have them on close out for half off. Just under $50.00.
Thank you,

Darian how do you do it. Do people just come to you in the middle of the night and tell you about deals? You can't have enough free time to find that kind of thing :blink:

John, good looking turkey....

slicer is awesome! it worked perfectly for my turkey as you can see. There is one warning in the instruction manual that says it should only be run 10 mins at a time. Also it wasnt fun to clean but worth it for the slicing it did for my turkey

Thank you John...

Turkey looks good. And the slicer is great, isn't it? Try Tsunami Spin. I use it for poultry all the time.

Academy is very close to my house in Galveston and I always make it a point to make a quick walk through and look for the clearance tags in the cooking-grilling area any time I'm in the store.
Email me if you need one.
Took a big rock to my windshield this morning so my play money is gone I think.

I got the slicer from Tuesday Morning. I was looking for something else and saw it and had to buy it. Normally it was 135.00 but they had it for 60.

Thanks for the heads up on Tuesday Morning and the slicer. Will have to pop in there and see if ours has one. I borrowed a friends for roast beef yesterday. Your turkey looks awesome. I love homemade meat for sandwiches, so much healthier.

That is a great book. I'm going to Kingsford University in two weeks to have a weekend class with Chris Lilly in Vegas. I can't wait.

Your turkey looks excellent. I like the maple glaze on it. I've made it several times.

I had a Waring Pro like that and it just died about two weeks ago. It lasted about 2 years. I am currently looking at a replacement in the Chef's Choice line.

Thanks Faith! Ill go get some Tsunami Spin and try it for next time. I only know a few places that sell Dizzy Pig up here in DC, so Ill see if they have it!

Just a though but if you have space to store it, you can get a decent seal on an ex-deli machine on craiglist sometimes. Thats what I did.

Actually, there is a restaurant supply store near my office and I was going to check there for a Hobart. Hadn't thought to scope out craigslist, good idea.

Is it to big for the windshield guys to fix for free from your insurance company?

Hit right at the edge drivers side eye level and split in two spots in minutes. Bad crack in a bad spot. Inspection due at end of this month as well. Must replace first. 120 miles a day for work. Was bound to pick up a bad one. Had several small ones fixed in the past.

Maybe this post will help convince my wife that we need a slicer!
