So this isn't music related....

I'm going to attempt to fry a buzzard. Yep, gonna rub that turkey with salt, pepper and garlic powder..... and pop it into some 350 degree peanut oil for 30 minutes or so, all the while drinking a few Sam Adams' brews.... I read that that's how Paula Dean recommends it be done.... not the Sam Adams, that's my personal addition to the recipe.

It will be outside, away from the house in the driveway on the rocks.... just in case. And more than likely, my SIL will be there too and he's a fireman. So I think we'll be safe.

I'll let you know if we're ever going to do it this way again.... later.

I hear it's good.....

Also, make sure the bird is either entirely thawed to room temperature or use one that is fresh, not frozen.

Sounds like a good plan. Don't do it inside, Herb. We don't want any repeat performances...

Ooh, never eaten buzzard before. We usually do the old fashioned turkey in Canada. Also never eaten a full fried bird before. You'll need to report back with how good it was smile

And of course, don't forget to let the bird chill a while before cooking...

I'm going to spatchcock our turkey, season it, and then grill it on the gas grill (using indirect heat). We've done it before and ended up with a wonderful crusty skin and moist turkey meat.

I use the popcorn method of cooking a turkey. You stuff the bird with popcorn and when it starts popping out of the turkey's butt the bird is cooked. whistle


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

I had considered doing Beer Butt turkey, but it seemed such a waste of a good beer to shove it up a turkeys butt.

OK... it's over and done.

We played it safe.... turned off the flame when we loaded the turkey.... fired it back up.... no beer up the turkey's backside orifice...... but we knocked back a few ourselves while the bird was cooking.

It was good. Cooked in a very short time. saved my wife hours of time watching it in the oven. Normally the white meat is pretty dry..... this wasn't. Very little was left of the 17lb bird.

No need to call the fire dept.... no one was seriously harmed, it was a good day.

Now.... time for a nap.... or more.

edit: next time I will abide by the 3min/lb rule as opposed to my wife's spur of the moment decision to " cook it longer so we're sure it's done " .... yeah, it was done 15 minutes ago.... next time.... Still good.... just that the wings and legs were pretty much too much done. Crispy.

My wife's a terrible cook. It took her hours and hours to stuff the turkey ..... she had to kill it in the end.

Glad to hear it was (mostly) successful! I've been super curious about trying to fried, but I hear it has to be done very carefully. It has been the cause of many house fires.

Happy belated Thanksgiving!


Cheers,

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
