Quality post. Thank you for brining your valuable perspective to the board.

 

Speaking of which, when did everyone decide to start brining their turkeys? I get the "keep the juices in" theory, but it makes the whole bird taste too damn salty.

That was worth two.

Realizing I'm missing the joke but Mrs. Assquatch cooks turkeys in bags that keep the juices in. No brining necessary and they come out juicy every time.

The very best thing I've ever done to keep my turkey moist is cooking it upside down until the last hour. Seems every year I try to improve and usualy do, brining might be in the works next year.

I used to brine the turkeys I would smoke on my Weber, but I cooked a non-brined bird for Christmas on my Big Green Egg that was easily the best turkey I've ever cooked. All of my family and guests agreed, even my mother in law who is usually impossible to get a compliment out of. Here is the recipe I followed, and you don't necessarily have to have an egg to do it. Awesome gravy recipe included too.

IMO brining is about adding flavors (something store bought birds sorely need), not about "juiciness". You want a moist bird? Try barding instead. Or learn to enjoy dark meat more. The dark meat in a turkey takes longer to finish and is usually filled with collagen after a long roast and therefore is much more succulent than breast meat.

 

Hmmmm.... succulent and breast in the same sentence....

Didn't Mike mind?

Twenty-five, ladies and gentlemen, 25.

Past the midway point of the season, that is the combined goal-scoring total of the Sabres second, third and fourth lines.

 

Think about it. On average, we can count on our second line — OUR ENTIRE SECOND LINE — to score once every three or four games.

 

We have a whole thread dedicated to what is wrong with Marcus Foligno. The man is our fourth best goal scorer with — count 'em — five

Zemgus, the only player that every single poster on this board likes, has twinkled the twine four freaking times.

 

These are the projected goal scoring totals over 82 games for any forward not named Ennis, Hodgson or Moulson:

 

Marcus Foligno: 10

Steve Ott: 9

Drew Stafford: 8

Matt D'Agostini: 8

Zemgus Girgensons: 7

Brian Flynn: 6

Cody McCormick 3

John Scott: 3

Ville Leino: 0

 

One bright spot is the fact that even though Matty Ellis didn't play enough games to qualify, he is on pace for 11!

Other extras — Larsson, Porter, Adam, Konopka, Kaleta, Omark and Grigorenko — have combined 3 goals in 79 games, two of them by Girgorenko.

 

:sick:
