Nice Larry! I was all prepped to do turkeys for TG but the inlaws want pulled pork??????? I here ya on the ostrich necks! It's almost like they round up spare pieces to cram in there.

Great looking birds Larry.

Thanks Larry. It took about 4 hhrs to get my 12 pounder to 168. But it din't turn out so good. Joints were tight and breast and thigh meat close to the bone was a touch rare. It may not have been thawed enough. Gonna try again with breasts until it figure out the cook temp I want and then go for the bird again.

Sorry to hear that Rag. Next time try putting the wrapped bird in your sink or bucket and fill with cold water and change every 30 minutes. You can thaw a 10-15lb bird in a couple hours like that. I had 4 frozen turkeys in the fridge for 4 days and they were still solid when I pulled them out.
