Before You Smoke The Turkey You Shot, Follow This Step To Prevent Dry Meat

If you’re lucky, you’re a hunter. If you’re wise, you understand what it means to be one. If you’re conscientious, you embrace every part of it, and if you’re diligent, you’ll reap its benefits. Full freezers mean food security, healthy meals and the drive to do it all over again. Everyone has their own favorite wild game and preferred preparation, but I’ve yet to meet anyone who has turned their nose up to a beautiful lump of meat smoked to perfection with care and attention. It’s May in Maine, and for the hunter, that means turkey season.
