How long can smoked turkey remain in a car in the winter?

If and only if the interior temperature of the car does not get above 40°F, you could keep the smoked turkey in the car for the same amount of time you keep it in the fridge. The problem is that the radiant heat of the sun coming through the windows can warm the car significantly.


What is a good smoked turkey recipe?

A good smoked turkey recipe typically involves brining the turkey in a mixture of salt, sugar, and herbs for several hours to enhance flavor and moisture retention. After brining, the turkey is then smoked at a low temperature (around 225-250°F) using wood chips such as hickory or applewood for added flavor. It is important to monitor the internal temperature of the turkey using a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches a safe temperature of 165°F in the thickest part of the meat. Finally, allow the turkey to rest before carving to retain juices and tenderness.

Why is ham better than turkey?

Your question is vague, but I assume you mean "why is turkey healthier than ham."? Ham is smoked, and smoked foods (bacon, ham, weiners, smoked sausage, etc) all contain nitrites from the smoke. These substances are carcinogenic: in other words, they can cause cancer when eaten too often because they cause irritation to cells. Liquid smoke and smoke flavour typically include these compounds as well. While there is much debate on how much is too much when it comes to smoked foods, they should be consumed in moderation. Ham is also typically very high in salt and sometimes, in sugar. Turkey is typically served fresh (not smoked or salt cured) so it's a source of meat protien without harmful additives. That said, turkey bacon and weiners are no more healthy than ones made with pork because they typically have the same nitrites and salt content anyway. They may, however, have less fat. Read the package to be sure. But don't assume that eating processed meats made with beef, chicken, or turkey is any better for you. In general, most diet experts recommend that you limit the intake of cured, smoked and salted meats (and processed foods in general) and try to eat more fresh and unprocessed foods.


Can you brine a store bought smoked turkey?

There's a couple of factors in this answer. Was the turkey ever frozen? if so, it should be cooked within two to three days of thawing, regardless. If the turkey is "fresh" (not frozen) you can get away with an extra day. If in doubt, add more salt, and be sure to change the water daily. And did I say more salt? Add more. Salt acts as a preservative, and it's pretty much impossible to over-salt a turkey.
