Grill Master Christopher Davis
Smoked Spatchcock Turkey
Ingredients:
  1. 1 (14-16 lb.) turkey
  2. Lane’s BBQ Signature Brine
  3. Wassi Meats Limited Edition Turkey Rub
  4. Duck Fat Spray
Steps:
  1. Brine your turkey using Lane’s BBQ Signature Brine for 12-24 hours and keep in the refrigerator.
  2. Bring your grill/smoker (Big Green Egg) to 300°F.
  3. Remove turkey and pat dry. If time permits, allow your turkey to dry for an hour or so.
  4. To spatchcock a turkey, remove the backbone by cutting down both sides.
  5. With the backbone removed, using a cleaver, cut the keel (breast) bone. Turn the bird over and press down on the breasts, breaking the remaining keel bone. The turkey should now lie flat.
  6. Season, liberally, the entire outside of the turkey with Wassi Meats Limited Edition Turkey Rub.
  7. Arrange the turkey skin side up and smoke till an internal temperature of 150°F, spraying with Duck Fat Spray every 45 minutes. This will help crisp up the skin.
  8. Increase the grill/smoker (Big Green Egg) temperature to +400°F and roast the turkey until the skin starts to brown and you reach an internal temperature of at least 165°F.
Roasted Brussel Sprouts
Ingredients:
  1. 1/2 lb. brussel sprouts
  2. Dizzy Pig’s Pineapple Head Seasoning
  3. Duck Fat Spray
Steps:
  1. Halve brussel sprouts.
  2. Bring your grill/smoker (Big Green Egg) to +/-400°F.
  3. Coat your brussel sprouts with Duck Fat Spray and Season with Dizzy Pig’s Pineapple Head.
  4. Place brussel sprouts on a baking sheet or a sheet of tin foil.
  5. Roast until edges are golden brown and crispy, about 25-30 minutes.
Smoked Mac n’ Cheese
Ingredients:
  1. 1 pound elbow macaroni noodles (cooked according to package instructions)
  2. 1/2 cup butter
  3. 4 Tablespoons flour
  4. 1 Tablespoon mustard powder
  5. 2 cups half and half
  6. 4 oz cream cheese
  7. 3 cups cheddar
  8. 1.5 cups gouda
  9. 1 cup panko bread crumbs
  10. 1/4 cup butter
  11. 2 Tablespoons 3 Beer Rub Garlic and Herb Seasoning
Steps:
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook macaroni noodles until they are al dente, meaning they still have a bit of chew and texture (not too soft).
  2. Bring your grill/smoker (Big Green Egg) to 225°F.
  3. Heat a 12″ cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Melt 1/2 cup of butter and whisk in the flour until a smooth, thin paste forms. Then whisk in the mustard powder.
  4. Carefully pour in the half and half and bring up to a boil while whisking. Reduce the heat and whisk in the cream cheese until smooth.
  5. Whisk in the cheddar and gouda cheeses and stir until melted. Turn off the heat and pour in the cooked macaroni noodles. Stir gently until the noodles are coated with the cheese sauce.
  6. Combine the melted butter, Garlic and Herb seasoning, and panko bread crumbs in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the top of the mac and cheese.
  7. Place the skillet in the smoker, close the lid, and smoke for 1 hour. You can smoke for up to 2 hours if you want a stronger smoker flavor, but the noodles will take on quite a bit of smoke fairly quickly.

Smoked Brisket
Ingredients:

    4. Remove brisket and double wrap in foil/butcher paper and add the apple cider vinegar.
    5. Place wrapped brisket back onto the smoker until it reaches an internal temperature of 204°F. This should take an additional 3-4 hours.
