Another Bread day this time just to boules in the oven total weight 1.6 KG they were a little under proofed but still tasty, a rosemary and 5% cracked wheat with a 10% whole wheat with remainder bread flour. Oven temp about 500F
Another Recipe = This time for a turkey injection I cut the 21 pound turkey down the middle. Placed each half in a roaster at Ceiling 525 floor 500. Covered in foil for 90 minutes, Removed foil and kept in for another 90 minutes, Removed bird when internal temp reached 165.
Injections of basting solution deep into bird about every 1 inch little amounts everywhere to distribute flavor.
Very moist and a very nice flavor.
This marinade injects a rich and buttery flavor directly into the meat of poultry. Particularly good on turkey, the secret to using this injection marinade is to keep it just warm enough for the butter to stay liquid.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
The insulation must be working. it has been 4 weeks since our last snowfall and the oven has not been below 200F because of reheating for various holiday parties etc... and there is still snow on the roof.
a strange thing happened night before last. I woke to find a strange looking fuzz all over my spark arrestor. The oven was about 450F and i had put some wood in to dry it out for heating the oven back up for pizza last night.
The outside temp got down to -15F (-26C) that night and it was still about -7F when I took the first photo.
There was a slight whisp of smoke or steam coming off the flue, it was frost that had built up on the spark arrestor. Once I began heating up the oven it all melted off and dripped down on my storm flashing.
Last photo is of how it looks this morning -6F. and a melting stage photo in between.

added one more photo of this mornings oven temp -8 overnight and was never above -5 from the time i put the door on at about 7pm. you gotta love insulation.

Can't put it in the garden, we have a dog and she would try to dig it up. The baguettes were the consistency of glass (very brittle) I ended up tossing them in the trash.
