I cooked my first turkey on the grill (Silver B) as I never even cooked one in the oven! I know, it's hard to believe but my family has always hosted the holidays! I used the Weber recipes for the apple brine and also their cooking instructions and gravy recipe. I had to cook it in a pan because I only have a basket style rotisserie at the moment. Next one will be on a rotisserie. Other than the grill running hot, everything went well. I had a difficult time keeping the temps low with two burners on low. I'm curious if Weber's temp guidelines are for using the hood thermometer? I used my Maverick and measured the grate temp at 355-375 most of the cook. I had just bought the Thermapen Mk4 and love it. It is one of my best investments. The turkey was moist and tasty. One of the thighs needed more cooking so I detached it and finished it in the oven. I'm having issues with Photobucket!
Here is the turkey sitting in the pan with veggies. I should have set it on top of the veggies to prevent the bottom from burning. 1st lesson learned!
Turkey on the Silver B
Finished turkey...sorry about the messy counter...ran out of room in the kitchen!
