Those came out looking really good! The hickory and apple should have added some really nice smoky flavor. Great job!
What kind of bourbon were you drinking for the occasion?

Thanks! I think everyone was really pleased. My brother in law texted me a couple days after they got home and said he couldn't remember if he told me nice job on the turkey. I have a feeling he was finally getting around to eating his leftovers and it popped in his head!
I think that bourbon was Buffalo Trace which is one of my favorites if you can get it at retail price. I wouldn't pay much over $30 for a bottle though. Later that day my other brother in law made a beer run and picked me up a bottle of Old Forester 1910 which is another one of my favorites.
Old Forester 1910 is really good stuff! I like Buffalo Trace too, not nearly as good as Eagle Rare but for the price it's excellent stuff!
I like the 1920 Prohibition blend as well from Old Forester, but it's such a high proof that I don't usually use it as a daily sipper. I agree with you on the Eagle Rare. I am milking my bottle to the very last drop.
