Happy and safe thanksgiving folks. We are only having 7 total people and maybe as many dogs but I'm thinking my wife, daughter and son and the kids significant others may have created a meal for 20 or so.

 

It's just the wife and I this year, so she picked up a smaller bird.
Happy and safe Thanksgiving to all!

Hello,

One year, my dad, at the insistency from my mom not wanting to cook a giant turkey all day, brought home a big smoked turkey from his grocery store owner/friend in Los Angeles. My mom was tired of cooking 17 straight turkeys and with two growing teenagers, decided she wanted a break. It had been a turbulent year for my mom and dad, with my brother in different stages of recovery from his 3rd degree burns. So, my dad brought home a smoked turkey for something different. The brothers devoured our share of the smoked turkey and packed the rest for the 4 day Thanksgiving surf adventure in Baja California’s secret spot. We had the smoked turkey dinner on Wednesday night and left at midnight for a 5 hour drive south.

It was the hit of the 4 day vacation and we vowed to do it again the following year. So, what do two ex-hot rod/drag race teenagers do for inventions after the hot rod phase was in recovery? Why, make a turkey smoker for our backyard. My brother came up with a great idea for the next turkey smoking dinner. He bought a metal milk can at the local surplus yard.

A. We painted the vintage milk can with high heat exhaust pipe paint.
We cut off the bottom in a circular pattern. That created a hole to sit over a small Hibachi

B. Then we cut out a side panel and made it into a swinging door with a latch.
We drilled holes into the top portion of the top curve area for smoke exhaust ports. It was close to the sealed area of the drop down lid, but away from the sides to create smoke exhaust outlets.

C. Finally, we drilled a hole into the bottom of the removable lid and we added a thick wire for the
hanging hook that dropped the turkey down towards the hot coals.

We could not hang the meat too close to the small hibachi or it would burn and not cook/smoke at the same time. The side door slot was good to adjust the lowered height of the meat (chicken/turkey/ham/steak) for the best smoking distance.

We cooked the turkey/ham in the backyard concrete pad just outside of our custom garage. It smoked up the whole yard and backyard garage. It smelled like smoked turkey for weeks. The final touch was going to be some red/yellow/orange flames on the side of the black milk container. That would have looked cool. But, my brother said it would be too hot and mess up the paint, anyway.

Did our mom like the smoked turkey idea? It smelled wonderful on our test runs. My brother and I stuffed ourselves with our own smoked turkey and chicken. But, my mother saw the original metal milk can in its rusted state before we painted it black. She said she would not eat anything cooked inside of “that thing.” Aww, we wanted to surprise our dad for the Wednesday night dinner so we could take off again for the 2nd time in two years down to Baja’s secret spot.

Our mom drove to the grocery store to get her a giant turkey so she could cook it for our Wednesday night dinner. By 1963, despite the secrecy from all of the friends in the minimal station wagons and vans headed South, somehow it got out and in 1963, it was no longer a secret spot. BOOOO!

The smoked turkey episode will linger on forever. It had permeated our sinus senses and made us drool at the recollection of the incident in our midnight conversations, much later, when we were older.
SMOKED TURKEY...YUM!!!

 

The Bird is the word everyone!.....
Hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving....

 

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

 

Happy Thanksgiving to all! A good day to reflect on what you have and not what you missed in 2020.
Be safe.....Dave

 

Safe and happy Thanksgiving to all !

 

Get up and wobble
if you are able
and make your way to the turkey table
sit right down and find your place
empty your plate and fill your face !
loosen that belt around your gut
wobble to the couch and sit on your butt !
be glad you are a citizen of this great land
Happy Turkey day to all of those, here on the H.A.M.B. !
