There’s A Barbecue In the
Wind
• The nip of Fall doesn’t have
to mean that the outdoor
cooking season has come to an
end. Quite the contrary. Some
of the nicest ingredients for a
gathering of family and friends
are an invigorating day and the
air pungent with barbecuing
poultry.
If you have never barbecued
turkey, now is a good time to
try something new. The U.S.
Department of Agriculture
reports that turkeys are
plentiful for October. That
means that there will be more
than enough turkeys on the
market to meet national
requirements. Begin your
barbecue with high quality,
young, tender-meated birds.
GS Troop 302
Begins New Year
Girl Scout Troop 302
started the year out with a trip
to the Ice Capades. The troop
left Kermit about 12:30
Sunday, Oct. 13. They arrived
home about 6 p.m.
Those attending were Evans
Cooke, Diane Forest, Rene
Franklin, Stephanie Morgan,
Paula Hollinshead, Tammy
• Ferguson, Yvonne Arnold and
their guest, Tammy Hutson.
Last Friday after the
football game, the troop had a
slumber party. Games were
played and breakfast fixed the
next morning. Kelly Stanford,
Paula Hollinshead, Stephanie
Morgan, Yvonne Arnold, Diane
Forest, Evans Cooke and Rene
Franklin attended this.
The troop’s leader this year
is Mrs. Paul Hollinshead and
the assistant leader is Mrs.
Kerry Franklin.
Visit Parents
Mr. and Mrs. Mike Lovelace
visited with their parents, Mr.
and Mrs. M. W. Lovelace and
Mr. and Mrs. Julian Dawson,
recently.
When shopping for turkey,
look for the USDA grade shield
on the label. It means that the
poultry has been graded for
quality by a federal or
federal-state grader.
U.S. Grade A turkeys are
the highest quality. They’re
fully fleshed and meaty and
have good overall appearance,
making them your best choice
for outdoor broiling. You’ll
find the grade shield on
packages of turkey parts and
on boneless roasts as well as on
whole turkeys.
While the grade mark
indicates quality, the key to
tenderness is the age or class of
bird. Young turkeys for
instance, are more tender than
older ones. Young turkeys may
be labeled - young turkey,
fryer-roaster, young hen, or
young tom. Mature turkeys
may be labeled-mature turkey,
yearling turkey, or old turkey.
Turkey halves, quarters, or
pieces are especially good for
barbecuing. Allow % to 1
pound per person. Small
turkey quarter roasts are also
excellent for barbecuing.
The key to a successful
charcoal barbecue is to wait
until the flames have
Ladies Council
Meets Tuesday
Ladies Council met in
Fellowship Hall of First
Christian Church Monday
night. Mrs. Ralph Wildman and
Mrs. Bernard C. Butts were
hostesses.
The meeting was brought to
order by Mrs. M. M. Bryant,
president.
After discussing the old and
new business, the women
listened to a tape on Equal
Rights for Women by Lottie
Beth Hobbs of Fort Worth.
The meeting was closed
with Mizpah.
Others present were Mrs.
Keith Huiatt, Mrs. Bob Foster,
Mrs. Russell Smith, Mrs. Jack
Hill, Mrs. Martin Hammer, Mrs.
Ed Courville and Mrs. Bertha
Kimbrough.
diminished leaving a solid bed
of glowing coals. Poultry
tastes best when broiled over
hot coals, not in flame or
smoke. Start the fire at least 30
minutes ahead of time so you’ll
have plenty of time for the
coals to burn down to ash-gray
before the cooking starts.
When the fire is ready,
brush the turkey with melted
butter or margarine, or your
favorite barbecue sauce. The
center of the grill will be hotter
than the outside edges, so place
small pieces like wings, legs or
thighs near the edges to avoid
over-browning.
Cooking time ranges from 1
to 1XA hours depending on the
size and thickness of the
pieces. Turn and baste
occasionally to assure even
cooking.
Before and after the
barbecue, poultry should be
handled with care. Keep frozen
poultry hard-frozen until time
to thaw, and cook promptly
after thawing. Use fresh-chilled
poultry within 1 to 2 days.
Completely cook poultry at
one time. Never partially cook,
they store, and finish cooking
at a later date. Be sure that the
leftover cooked poultry is
stored, loosely wrapped, in
the coldest part of the
refrigerator. Use within 1 or 2
days. Freeze for longer storage.
