 Thanksgiving Would Not Be Thanksgiving Without A Turkey
Thanksgiving would not be Thanksgiving without having a turkey. I like turkey as much as the other individual, however at times the Thanksgiving turkey can get a little boring. In my own family, we actually prefer to mix things up a little bit. Heck occasionally we'll as well miss the turkey in preference of something a little less traditional as ribs or prime rib. However for people who want the conventional Thanksgiving Turkey there're many ways to cook a turkey (including smoking your turkey, cooking your turkey in a turkey fryer, etc.). Here are five different simple methods to cook turkey which are a bit unlike normal, however equally tasty.

Roasted Turkey - First, I just have got to add Grandma's favourite roasted turkey. After all, what exactly would Thanksgiving be without having Grandma's roasted turkey and home made mashed potatoes? This specific roasted turkey is the simplest turkey recipe you'll find. Simply, you take out the giblets and wash the turkey in cold water. Pat the turkey dry then put three Tbsp of butter under the skin. Prepare a soup made from water, chicken bouillon, onion powder, parsley, salt and pepper. Pour the lean soup directly on the turkey, cover with foil and cook for 3 1/2 hours at 350. Remove the aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes more for a golden brown skin. Serve along with home made mashed potatoes, gravy, as well as your favourite Thanksgiving dishes!

Barbecue Turkey - We like to grill and grill throughout the year, whatever the weather. We put many other things on the grill, why not a turkey too? Grilling a turkey gives it a special taste and texture that you simply can't get from an oven. When barbecuing a turkey, place the turkey in a baking pan over the fire; in this way you can actually baste the turkey periodically as you would do if you were roasting it.

Deep fried Turkey - People who really enjoy crisp turkey skin will LOVE deep fried turkeys. A deep fried turkey is delicious and using a turkey fryer to prepare turkeys is becoming a lot more popular, particularly now that the turkey fryer is becoming a common kitchen appliance. While a lot of turkey fryers are deep fryers in which you use peanut oil in a huge frying pot, you can also find oil-less infrared turkey fryers too, which minimize the mess of frying. Deep fried turkeys tend to have dark crisp skin (which my family fights over!), and under that delicious skin is soft, properly cooked meat that your family will love.

Turducken - This particular odd sounding turkey is a combination of different de-boned fowl: turkey, duck, and chicken. All of them are put together and layered with filling to make this newest addition to the Thanksgiving table.

Smoked Turkey - One of my favourite methods of making turkey is smoking it. I just love the flavour of a smoked turkey, together at Thanksgiving dinner as well as for those excellent leftover turkey sandwiches. Smoking a turkey takes several hours, but it is soooo worth it! One advice while smoking a turkey - placing a pan of water over the smoker will help hold in moisture and make a moist, juicy turkey that everybody will enjoy.

How will you make your Thanksgiving Turkey this year? At our home we will be using our new masterbuilt electric turkey fryer. My hubby and his sister fight over the crispy skin, that is always fun to watch :) I hope you found some new as well as tasty methods to cook your turkey this vacation. Happy Thanksgiving!
