/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

I smoke a turkey for Thanksgiving every year! By far the best way to do so.
My current method is using one of these which holds the turkey upright, which greatly helps get the dark meat cooked faster. Beer-can turkey/chicken is similar. It still takes forever, but it turns out well. Spatchcocking might be a nice thing to try.
My favorite part of smoked turkey is making Turkey Stock, for soup. WAY WAY WAY better than the actual turkey itself.
I like it, but with a foul of such enormity that I mentioned, it wouldn't fit within the confines of my smoker. Barely cleared by a 1/4" laying down. Beer-can chicken is always a winner, though.
Large turkeys can be unwieldily for sure.
The solution going forward is simple. Cubed turkeys. Worked for Space Truckers.
Perfection
You can break it down into parts And cook them individually/ in batches
They even easier to cook evenly this way, the the advantage of taking dark meat to the slightly higher temp it prefers.
It takes some practice to look nice, but it’s a great way to save money on poultry if you’re so inclined.
Alternatively, if you look for a Capon, they’re a larger chicken (technically a rooster that’s been snipped, so to speak, rather than a hen.) they’re smaller than a turkey and have a somewhat milder turkey-flavor
These techniques are pretty uniform across birds.
A worthwhile consideration. The bird only stays whole for the cook, but is served carved buffet style.
