BASTING SAUCE
Rub turkey with salt, inside and out.
Refrigerate for 5 days in plastic bag.
Wash inside and out thoroughly to clean off all the salt.
Place turkey in a covered barbecue pit over dampened hickory sawdust.
The sawdust may be added to the fire from time to time to keep the smoke going.
Remember, you are not barbecuing,; you are smoking the turkey.
Smoke for 36 hours, turning every now and then.
Baste every hour with Coca-Cola (tm), vinegar and wine.
