Spin That Bird Rotisserie Turkey 101
Ingredients:
– 1 whole turkey (12-14 pounds), thawed if frozen
– 1/2 cup olive oil
– 4 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
– 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
– 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. Prepare your Bull Outdoor Products grill for indirect grilling by lighting the burners on one side of the grill, leaving the other side unlit. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, around 350°F.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to create a flavorful marinade.
3. Remove the giblets from the turkey cavity and pat the turkey dry with paper towels. Truss the turkey using kitchen twine to help it cook evenly on the rotisserie.
4. Carefully slide the prepared turkey onto the rotisserie spit, making sure it is secured tightly. Brush the turkey all over with the marinade, ensuring it is evenly coated.
5. Place the rotisserie spit onto the grill, making sure it is balanced and the motor is working correctly. Turn on the rotisserie motor and close the grill lid.
6. Allow the turkey to cook on the rotisserie for approximately 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F in the thickest part of the thigh. Periodically check the temperature to ensure even cooking.
7. While the turkey is cooking, you can baste it with any remaining marinade or a mixture of melted butter and herbs for added flavor and moistness.
8. Once the turkey is cooked through and has a beautiful golden-brown color, carefully remove it from the grill and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before carving.
9. Carve the turkey into slices and serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs and accompanied by your favorite sides and sauces.
