Are you ready to elevate your culinary game just in time for the holidays? This episode of the Okie Smoking Podcast has it all! We kick things off by reminiscing about our latest mouth-watering adventures, from scrumptious beer brats to our zesty Tropical Storm pineapple jalapeno hot sauce. We also introduce our newest masterpiece—a hickory smoked hot sauce—and get Dolores' take on its flavor profile. As the festive season approaches, our discussion heats up with a spirited debate on dry brining versus wet brining for your Thanksgiving and Christmas feasts. Plus, we answer listener questions from Georgia and Illinois and share our upcoming plans to explore some of the best barbecue joints in Oklahoma and a top-rated restaurant in Dallas.

In this episode, we also delve into the nitty-gritty of brining methods, particularly for poultry but also for pork and beef. Discover why dry brining might be the space-saving, crispy-skinned solution you need. We'll share our personal stories about smoking turkey and the magic of proper seasoning. A listener from Georgia even throws in a curveball by reminding us of a unique banana pizza recipe we previously discussed, highlighting the interactive and experimental spirit of our show. Finally, don’t forget to subscribe to the Okie Smoking Podcast so you never miss out on our delicious creations and culinary tips.
