    If you like how the turkeys come out you should try doing chickens and or cornish hens. Most people that have tasted Turkey side by side with the chickens or game hens usually like them more than the Turkey. Thing to remember is that for some reason you need to cook the them 7.5min per pount insted of the 4.

    I use Amato (local winery in Independence, LA) Sweet Strawberry or Blackberry wine as a base, with lots of cayne pepper, Lea & Perrins Worcestershire for chicken, and a little Caribbean Jerk Chicken seasoning, no butter.

    Yep, smaller the bird, longer per pound. 10 lb turkey I usally go 4 mins. per pound. 15 lber i'll go 3 or 3.5 mins. per pound. Depending on how those eating it like it cooked. Small birds, chickens, get 8 mins. per pound. Gotta make sure that dark meat get's cooked! A 3 ponund bird wouldn't cook thoroughly at 4 mins per pound.

    I like my fried birds not injected, or very little. Don't like all that guk in the bird when eating it if it's been heavily injected. But I don't suck crawfish heads either. :D
