Happy Thanksgiving. How you doing your bird?

[67rustavenger]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
I'm BBQing a turkey today. I do one every Thanksgiving and take to my sis's house for a family dinner.
At least a week before the holiday. I do a calibrator bird. The image below is today's bird.

And yea, I got the passenger side of my 67 in the pic.

How you doing your bird?

Cooking ours right now on the old school charcoal Weber, just like you! This is the only time all year it gets used. All of our other grilling is on the propane one.

We fried it. The turkey that is.

[bigdog1962]

Deep fried. Two years ago, I tried for it for the first time. It's my new favorite way.

All you can eat buffet at a local tavern. Great food with no cleanup. Turkey, ham, pasta, flounder stuffed with crab,....take your pick. Then go home and sleep.

Brine the night before, rinse and dry rub, stuff with veggies, and then 15min a pound in the oven. So good!

We brined 2 birds, cooked one in the webber, the other in the oven. A salmon fillet went in the smoker for the non meat eaters.

We used a Reynolds Oven Bag for the turkey. Works great, doesn't dry out, no clean up.

Did a Butterbowl smoked turkey - just defrost and heat. perfect everytime.

Although a deep fried one is awesome too. We did one last year. Too much work but worth it. Works out best if you don't burn down the house.
