Just me this year so I haven't decided what I am doing yet.

Can you think of anything else I might want to do?

I like the idea of putting down one big damn bird on the main table. I have a couple 15 pounders for the side table.

Not sure, man. Honestly, I've never seen turkey that big. The brine will help, certainly. I'd be afraid the outside of the breast will be dry and chalky by the time the inside is up to temp.

Definitely don't stuff it, you'll want as much heat contact on the inside as you can get. And I would think low and slow would be the key, but I really don't have any idea how to attack a bird that big.

Good luck!

Some people do hams, some do turkey, some do roasts, some do something completely off the wall (SaulSquidGuy)...

going to the mil for tg this year, so the turkey is her job. the wife will probably make the noodles and take them up w/some pies. her house isn't very big, so it's gonna be elbow to elbow.

i'll probably go home right after dinner. either hunt or sleep.
gotta work friday.

Saw your edit, thanks. Yeah, I double everything.

I don't find it sweet and I'm not a fan of sweet. It's the best salt to sugar to liquid ratio for my taste. Yeah, I boil the cider with the salt/sugar for a minute, stirring to dissolve. If you boil, make sure you get that liquid down to 40 F before combining it with the water.

Either tuna casserole or leftover spaghetti.

Happy holidays.
