Addiction LXXX

Notices
Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

It's not hard. Clean the bird and empty the junk out of the cavity (throw it away unless you want it for something). Stuff the cavity with chopped apple, opinion, celery, and any herbs you might want. You can also change that up to give you a flavor that appeals to you. Brush the outside with olive oil, and sprinkle with ground sea salt and ground coarse pepper. Or, you can rub with any number of things depending on the flavor you want.

Preheat oven to 350.

Put the bird in a roasting pan. When oven is at temp, but the bird in. Use an oven probe in the thigh, and set an alarm for 165 degrees. Some say to tent it with foil to help keep it moist, others don't. If you do, remove the tent about 1/2 hour before it is done (about 155 degrees) to help the breast skin brown. If the leg freely turns in its socket, then the bird is done.

Can't comment on stuffing as that's not my thing.

I've been the turkey cooker in the family for 25 years. I usually smoke them, and if we are having a large group will do several all seasoned and flavored differently. Some that I do fairly consistently are lemon/herb, Cajun spiced with butter injection (my wife is from Louisiana), bourbon brined, and some others that I just make up as I go depending on what's in the house. For smoke flavor I'll use mainly apple with poultry, but have also used hickory, cherry, and mesquite depending on the desired outcome.
Or pass it along to a shelter

They make good tents too.

Current state of the hand. The second opinion I got today says I don’t need pins in the thumb, but they are worried I tore a ligament, which would require surgery. MRI Friday morning. Wonder when/if I will be able to ride a bike again.

I have very little doubt you’ll ride again. Going to cook anything interesting?

Let us know the what and the how of it.

We are doing a turkey breast, chipotle sweet potato soup, a sausage and chard fritata, green beans, and Brussels sprouts, probably sautéed with bacon.

Will do.

I'm mostly OK with it all, but I did include a couple of orders of veggies, just in case. I think I'll make a Key Lime Pie for Mrs. LAJ, and then try and talk her out of her Sweet Potato Pumpkin Pie....

Roasted Tofu with Cranberry Orange Chutney
Cauliflower Mashed Potato with Celery Root Gravy
Roasted Winter Vegetables with Sage Pesto
Cornbread with Maple "Butter"
Sweet Potato Pumpkin Pie

I have an old Neuvation rear wheel that is shot. Was going to trash it, but mrs datlas said to keep it and she will try to do something arty/crafty with it.

Got the turntable working again and listening to some classic U2 (“War”) with Jackie. The sound is quite good.

This morning was nuts.

Suffice to say that between Mrs. GeneJockey sorta, kinda quarantining, and a crew showing up to vacuum up the old cotton waste insulation in the attic, and having to do a Zoom meeting with my boss and the CSO to discuss a project of great interest to our CEO, I've been busier than the fabled one armed paperhanger.

I'm not even sure I'm gonna do Thanksgiving dinner, at the rate this is going. I have not been able to shop yet.

Last spring, I'd set up the table and mounting plate so that it was nice and flat, but these results were pretty ****ty, so I got out a straight edge to re-check. Everything looked fine as before... until I got to the opening in the mounting plate Yeah, the plate is flat at the leading and trailing edges, but there's a dip in the middle of the plate, right where you wouldn't want it, right at the cutter, and it's a good 1/16 or so. Longer, bigger pieces don't dip in to that low spot, but the shorter 1 1/2" rails were dipping in as they were pushed through.

Oh well, at least I know, now. Not sure how I'll proceed, though. Buy a replacement that might also be wonky? Flatten the one that I have with some elbow grease and lots of sand paper? Make my own table?!
Is this the Bosch table?. If so, I believe you can get a center plate. No guarantee the replacement will be perfect though.
