5 kilo of Turkey breast!?

Postby GUS » Sun Jun 02, 2013 5:34 pm

Whilst grabbing a decent sized brining tray, I couldn't turn down (hate waste) 5+kg of turkey breast (reduced)...
it's in the fridge, awaiting some advice & pre prep, as we a re a household of 3 it's too big to comprehend & eat in one go, would it benefit in terms of smoke penetration (at some point) as smaller joints?

As for the tray I bought for around £3.45 a "chefs larder" catering tote tray good & deep allowing for careful slopping to & fro to the fridge (& hopefully fit in there too). ..any good, we'll see!

i'm flummoxed but I wasn't going to leave it, wiping down surfaces now in anticipation of cutting it into more manageable portions.

cheers all.

Are you able to hot smoke it (225F)?

Unable currently, merely got the cold smoker & yet to sort anything beyond, plus I prefer to trial thoroughly (with my kid) prior to moving on ward (re-doing recipes until she's got it down to a tee).
I'll cut it & vacuum bag it, & freeze for "later".

When it's on offer locally, I freeze it in joints, slices, diced or minced for later use.
