Pedro's E-bag
Planning for Thanksgiving
Hey, Pedro, Now that Halloween’s over, what are you planning to do for Thanksgiving?

I am thankful that I don’t have to haul those heavy packs at Philmont anymore, Ryan. Since The Boss will be home eating turkey, I’ll probably munch an extra amount of hay and take a nap — the perfect day.
How does someone slow roast a 20 pound Wild Game Turkey over a campfire or using a solar oven when you can’t determine a constant oven temperature over 325 degrees Farenheit? Is it possible to still cook turkeys at temperatures of about 225 degrees Farenheit for longer periods of time greater than five hours and still have a great turkey dinner without the risk of salmonella? How does a person low temperature cook a turkey safely? Is there a known safe procedure to cook a low temperature slow cook turkey?
