Bottom Line: Slight tingle and light fruit on the nose.  John got a lot of sweetness up front followed by oak. I got burn, tangy ;ight fruit, and smoky wood. 2 Thumbs up and 1 thumb down!<br />

			<description><![CDATA[I volunteered to roast a turkey for a banquet (one of three, plus a ham, big banquet.) Friday. It's been about fifty years since I cooked a whole turkey. I'm borrowing an electric roaster because my tiny oven won't accommodate a 20# bird.<br />
<br />
I didn't get a butterball, just a plain turkey because I want to dry-brine it. After dry-brining several chickens I've become a fan of that method. I intend to brine with only salt, pepper, and maybe sage.<br />
<br />
It's one thing to cook for myself, I can live with a screw up, but for a banquet.....]]></description>

First off, paprika gets kinda bitter when fried. Next, the description emphasized the crispy nature of the chicken. Crispy when simmered in stock, really?]]></description>

I have never seen a squash this difficult to cut. I had to baton the knife to get into it and it broke apart by the time I was done. Is it possible to hybridize the dang things with hickory? Maybe they're not good storage squash? <br />
Anyhoo, there's an acorn squash in the oven now.]]></description>

Bottom Line: Very crunchy. The first one had no with the actual peanut butter inside. The next few had little to adequate PB inside. The overall taste was very good. 4 Thumbs up!<br />
