You may be thinking about how you can do Thanksgiving dinner different this year. If you want to have your Thanksgiving in the backyard in the beautiful weather we have here in the desert. Now is the time to think about a custom backyard Barbecue and BBQ island to entertain on the entire year.
Here is an idea on how to cook your Turkey outdoors and entertain on Thanksgiving afternoon poolside:
Turkeys can also be cooked on the barbecue, either using a rotisserie or placed in a roasting pan on the grill. If using a rotisserie, it’s recommended that your turkey be under 12 pounds. If you need more than one, you can cook one the day before and warm up in the oven just before serving.
Your turkey should be completely thawed before cooking it in a barbecue. It’s best to cook it without any stuffing inside to ensure it’s cooked properly throughout.
I think this is the method that results in a turkey the most similar to a turkey roasted in an oven, and I will definitely be trying this method soon.
