Turkey Day is here and nothing truly says 'MERICA like the combination of the National Football League and Thanksgiving. My food-comas on this most special Thursday of the year are historic and i love to reminisce about the turkey induced naps of Thanksgivings past.

As some of you know, I do my fair share of combining fire and meat. So this year I thought I would share a recipe with my Daily Norsemen Brothers (and Sisters).... Please enjoy my recipe for Whole Smoked Turkey with Beer Injection

I never get tired of using my smoker to make new and different things, but I also enjoy the classics like cooking an entire turkey. This recipe will show you how to slow smoke your bird all day and keep it moist, tender and delicious. Tip: Using a small amount of Mesquite along with Cherry wood makes a great blend of smokey goodness for your fine unfeathered friend.
