I just got my first turkey on Friday and am wondering the best way to cook the breasts. They are cut off the bird and in the freezer now. I gave the legs to my buddy. I do hAve access to a smoker.

My only advice is to remove as much silverskin as possible. It's worth the extra effort I assure you.

X2 on strips or nuggets. We use JR madds magic fish batter and I like dipping them into honey after I got em all cooked up

I started grinding mine up a few years ago and never looked back.  I make them into patties, freeze them in individual baggies.....turkey burgers on the grill year around.  Delicious.

I cut mine up into 1 inch chunks and marinated them in Italian dressing over night. Wrap them in bacon, use either a tooth pick or uncooked spaghetti to hold the bacon in and grill them.
If you have any deer backstrap left you can do the same thing

Small cubes for deep fried nuggets. Marinated nuggets wrapped in bacon & cooked on the charcoal grill. Sliced into thin cutlets and pounded with a meat hammer, for weinerschnitzel, chicken fried steak, or turkey parmagiana. Do your best to get all the silverskin off, it does make a difference.

Sorry to hijack this thread a bit but I'm looking for suggestions on how to cook leg/thigh meat.  I've never kept the leg meat in prior years but decided to keep it from this year's bird.  I have chunks of leg/thigh meat that I cut off the bone and cleaned up real well.  Any good suggestions out there?  Thx

I like this one, I can't have breading or most batter on my diet so this would be the cat's meow. Thanks. Now I just have to shoot a turkey.

There are a ton of recipes on the forum here as well in case you did not know. http://oldgobbler.com/Forum/index.php/board,28.0.html I have to check some of them out myself to see if there are others I can have on my diet.

I like to smoke them then make soup with any leftovers the smoked dark meat has excellent flavor. I brine mine for 24hrs season and wrap in bacon smoke until 165 wrap in foil and place in cooler for 30+ min.

If it's boneless I would just throw in a tin pan and lay the bacon on top but do the brine and smoke just the same.

I like to open the breast like a book, pound flat, stuff with blue cheese, mushrooms, some sage and from the garden then roll it back up and wrap in bacon weave. More a method than a recipe o guess. Pics explain it better

Firstly, Any way you prepare turkey is a winner. I braise legs and wings and they are fabulous. All the above make my mouth water, lol. Recently I have been smoking my breast meat and it is better than any deli meat I have ever had. I need to go toast my lunch, Turkey bacon Monterey jack pannini with ranch bbq dipping sauce.
