Let's see some turkeys! This is one I did last Christmas. I'm looking forward to it again this year.

Thanks! It definitely was good! No Clark Griswold moment. I'm not sure why the picture posted side ways, probably something to do with my iPhone  .

Rotate picture & save before posting. Don't know why but it works.

Good looking turkey, could you give up the details of cooking the bird?

 I usually brine my turkeys over night in a salt, brown sugar (equal parts).  I rinse the bird and stuff chunks of cold butter under the skin and rub the bird down with soft butter. Season the skin with salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary. Throw it on the pit @ 350 and let her go for about an hour, then lower the temp to 300 until she's done. You can also skip the brine and buy a butterball, but I prefer to brine. It's pretty simple really.
