Before

Thanksgiving was a real blast. Mardi and I hosted our family friends this year.

I had never cooked turkey before and thursday would be my second thanksgiving ever. My good mate Henry gave me a recipie and we worked together to prepare a bloody great turkey. The bucket is to soak the turkey overnight in brine which is chicken stock, candied ginger, all spice berries and lots of salt. I was really pleased with the result an awesomely moist roast turkey.
