Round 1 @ dad's.

Sensation salad, jello salad (courtesy of very extended-family Nebraskans), taters, brussels, lobster mac and cheese, Perini Ranch smoked tenderloin (only "cheat" item).

And the best part - I didn't have to cook any of it.

No fish and an ass beating? Gonna be a rough Friday!

You guys are lucky. I’ve never seen ISU lose in this shop. I might just crash it for that reason alone.

Round 1 off to a good start. Ribeye with sautéed shrooms and onions, stuffing muffins, roast vegetable medley (Brussels sprouts, asparagus, fancy carrots). Bourbon barrel aged Cab. Not a big wine guy, but it worked well with the meal. Bourbon notes were mild. Pecan pie not pictured.

Not sure what the game meal will be now. Might just be my Bloody Mary garnishes.

The butter added nothing. It tasted no different than any other turkey I have smoked. I’d skip it next time.

I did the same thing. Couldn’t tell if it made any difference to the taste of the meat, but the drippings and runoff made a fantastic roux as base for a sauce.  Only use I can see for the butter.
