How to Order a Smoked Turkey from us is a post from: Lucky Dog BBQ - 'hungry yet?

It is smoked Turkey time here in Danville, Kentucky.  Our heros from Greenberg Smoked Turkeys had an excellent write up in the NY Times on their operation.  Part 1 – 1 of 2 Spicy, Smoky Holiday Turkey — United Tastes – NYTimes.com  and Part 2 –  Spicy, Smoky Holiday Turkey — United Tastes – NYTimes.com  click on the link to see that.

In the meantime while we build up to that size  :-) (Mr Greenberg smokes 200,000+ turkeys every year)  Cindy and I will be smoking turkeys for your Smoked Turkey holiday tradition.

We start with a 12-16 pound bird, brine them, inject them with our secret herbs and spices and smoke them over Hickory for 9 hrs.

Our turkeys must be picked up in Danville, KY right out of the smoker (we currently have no place to store a buncha birds), then you’ll know they are fresh.

I bet you can’t drive home with these smoked turkeys without nibbling.  Smelling that aroma in the car is amazing.

For a chart of how many our turkeys will feed - http://www.gobblegobble.com/how.php

Of course, this is a ‘nibblin’ turkey, so grab your favorite beverage and a favorite family member, hide in a corner of the kitchen and nibble away.  :-)

our turkeys are only $40.  Order early!  859-319-5000 or text me.

Lore Brewing Beer and BBQ? a serious Danville, KY foodie event

DANVILLE, KY – Lore Brewing Company and the folks at the Kentucky State BBQ Festival are teaming up to bring you some of the best beer in the Bluegrass to enjoy while experiencing world-class BBQ. Four selections will be available from Lore at the event, which takes place in Constitution Square on the first weekend in November. One thing you should know when attending a “foodie” type event is how to properly pair your food and drink.

When most people think of food pairings, they think of wine. What you might not know is that properly pairing beer is just as important. We’ve done the work for you, and written a guide on how to take your taste buds to BBQ heaven with a little help from Lore Brewing’s beer.

Toolbox Cream Ale – Since this is …..a lighter and slightly sweet beer, you don’t want to overpower the beer with really heavy flavors. This beer will go best with any meat that has a fruity glaze or is lightly smoked. This includes chicken, sausages and most pulled pork sandwiches that aren’t swimming in sauce. We experienced this pairing first hand at Danville’s Oktoberfest, where the pulled pork from the Lucky Dog BBQ Team and Toolbox Cream Ale complimented each other very well.

Freya’s Stone Amber Ale – This beer is right in the sweet spot for just about every type of BBQ. The hop flavor will play nicely with most sauces, and the caramel maltiness won’t be drowned out by more heavily smoked fare. Freya’s Stone is highly recommended for things like ribs, sauced sandwiches, and brisket. This is by far the most popular beer in Lore’s lineup, so make sure you pick some up before it runs out.

Derby Brown Ale – With the dark and roasty flavors in this beer, you will generally want to seek out food with heavier flavors. Anything with a sticky, molasses type glaze, and any type of beef pairs very well with this beer. Stay away from chicken while sipping this one, because the lighter taste will be completely overpowered by the beer. Food that is heavily smoked will also go well with Derby Brown.

Smoked Festive Ale – This beer from Lore was created exclusively for the festival. It is a smoky-looking light ale made with malted barley that has been smoked over cherrywood. The result is a hammy smoke flavor in the beer. Some people have referred to it as “bacon beer”. Enjoy this one with anything at the festival. Smoked beer goes well with smoked meat – but we probably didn’t have to tell you that. It is not a part of Lore’s regular production, so make sure that you try this beer that will only be available at the festival.

The above guidelines will give you the best possible flavor combinations. What really matters is that you enjoy the festival. Any of these beer options will be great as long as they are consumed responsibly. Enjoy your food and drink, and experience all that this event and the city of Danville has to offer. When you get back to wherever it is you call home, remember to seek out and support local breweries!

Centre College President John Roush and his wife, Susie Miller Roush, hosted a barbecue Wednesday for Centre’s Sodexo food services staff, whom they agreed deserved a night off before students begin arriving today.

Lucky Dog donated the catered event for about 150 people as an fundraising auction item at the Court Appointed Special Advocates at Woodlawn’s Derby Eve Gala in May.

The Roushes attended the CASA event, where Susie Roush said she went straight for Lucky Dog’s donation.
“When I saw it as an auction item, I thought ‘oh boy, it is so good,’” she said.

The couple won the catering event and decided to host a meal for the Sodexo staff, giving them an evening of the good food and great service they provide for others every day, John Roush said.

CASA at Woodlawn Director Laura Guerrant attended the event and said she was delighted to experience the Roushes generous idea for the barbecue.

“It’s like the gift that keeps on giving and giving and giving,” she said.

Another great video on the Big Apple Block Party.  Thank you Jason Perlow!

We go behind the scenes at the 2011 Big Apple BBQ Block Party and visit the pits at Memphis Championship BBQ, Blue Smoke, Martin’s, Ubon’s, Pappy’s Smokehouse, Dinosaur BBQ, Ed Mitchell and Salt Lick — all while the weather conspires against us. We promise there’s plenty of Hi-Def food porn in this 32 minute video.

For photographic coverage of previous Big Apple BBQs, I’ve compiled four years of it, over 900 photos worth, in this single Flickr album.
