Might as well get another one started given the time of year.

Anyone ever cook a turkey on a glass grill? Was thinking of giving it a shot this year.

No. Never used. I've smoked it and deep fried one. Just don't overcook it. Nothing worse than a dry bird.

gas grill? or glass... like is that some new shit? Mine has a rotisserie thing and I did one that way once. It came out really good. We are actually not making turkey this year an going with prime rib instead. I know it's so un-American but fuck it. There's going to be just 6 of use and that's what everyone wanted.
In the past few years if we made a bird it was usually with the fryer, which is basically impossible to fuck up. As for cooking turkey in general any other way, I say take it out earlier than whatever instructions you have and let it set a little longer. I'd rather it be a little undercooked by the bone than have a dry ass bird.

Doh, gas grill lol. I'm thinking I'm just going to oven cook it... was looking a way out of the kitchen but I haven't heard anyone actually cooking one on a gas grill so I'm guessing there's a reason for it.

as long as you have a way to keep the temp where you want it it shouldn’t be much different than an oven?... I say go for it.

Done a prime rib a few times in oven and on charcoal grill. I'm always nervous but it comes out good. My wife's favorite.

BTW can I suggest sweet potatoes instead of yams? Roasted or mashed with butter and a little brown sugar maybe cream. I cannot stand yams. An aunt always made the ones with marshmallows. God bless her she's my Godmother but I just cant.

Nothing wrong with sectioning a turkey for better results. The idea of keeping the bird whole for tradition needs to die.

I only eat the tit anyway so I’m all for it. If it were up to me we’d just get a giant breast. I don’t care for dark meat.

We do prime rib for xmas so turkey it is on thanksgiving. Best thing about turkey is making turkey mole out of the leftovers.

Sweet potatoes, yams, marshmallows... :toilet:

My wife’s aunt make the actual mole for me and then I throw it in the slow cooker with left over turkey for a few hours. Turkey is a real good meat for mole.

People argue over sweet vs. spicy mole but but I’m like...

Then there’s homemade turkey pot pie. Delicious.
 
Some guys probably hate . But gotta have brussel sprouts on Thanksgiving. Love them.

My sister does them that way in a pan. It might even have a little bit of brown sugar.

I roast them in the oven with a little OO salt and pepper.
 
Got one of those Emeril ovens for Christmas. Did a small pork roast since a 4 pound chicken was too big. And also some burgers which were more medium do I'll cook them a little less next time.

I usually do wings in the oven so I'm going to try them with this on Sunday.
 
I’ve only ever done wings in the oven, but haven’t had a single wing since this past spring’s Hot Ones shindig. Getting ready to do the 2nd Annual in a few months. The 10th wing sauce will likely be about 2,000,000 scoville. Last year’s 10th wing was less than half of that so I’m kind of scared again.
