I've smoked one on a Weber charcoal grill. I used a smokenator, a piece of steel that acts as a shield between the meat and the hot coals used for indirect cooking.

Good flavor, moist bird, minimum fuss.

you're right, that is a crazy dream because the ebola outbreak tracker shows that the number of new cases has been relatively stable (albeit noisy) for the last couple weeks. contrary to the summary, however, the tracker shows that ebola cases are doubling every 46 days, not 2-3 weeks.

(Seriously, where do you begin. Server logs, cookies, magic URLs, IP lookups, etc.)

It's almost like they don't want a pure meritocracy?

The feminist movement is not about being treated as equals; it's about identifying a majority (seriously!) of the human population as "victims" in order to gain wealth and political power 'advocating' on their behalf.
