How did you do the Turkey!? I'd considered this for Thanksgiving, but most of what I've read recommends splitting it up and cooking white/dark meats separately - which put me off. I've done ribs many times, in brine and bagged. Generally the brine has produced better results, finish those up in a smoker. We often do large cuts of beef, my favorite so far is shoulder clod but I've done brisket, tri-tip, and others as well from about 10-30lbs. I'll cook it in the bag for 12-24 hours depending on the cut & thickness and then finish it with a rub & sear on the grill. I've done a small, whole pig in brine as well! Browned it on a spit before eating and it was delicious. For this kind of big stuff, I use a Marshalltown bucket heater with my company's temp controller- either in a 5 gallon bucket with a towel over the top or an ice chest for the really big stuff. I find that the bucket can benefit from circulation (I use a bubbler) but the ice chest is fine without it. The only downside to this approach is that for brine items- like the pig- the bucket heater can get grimey and is tough to clean without a pressure washer! To solve that problem, I'd like to pick up something that's smooth on the outside instead, with no cavities, such as a heating tube for aquariums like this one.
