Weber Genesis Platinum, I bought in Wausau,Wisconsin. Will be drastically modified.

I got this from Amazon today, am really impressed on the packaging and quality looking item.
We'll see how it does on Christmas day on our 10 pound turkey, rotisserie of course.

You got the sled on Amazon???

 

[MarkCuda]

So much for 5/7 inches of snow

 

[Bruce]

We got more down here.

You're gonna love that Lightning. And the customer service they give is top notch

Seems to be the only one I use now rather than the Pop

 

[MarkCuda]

It's on

 

[Bruce]

No pictures of the bird?

 

[MarkCuda]

Hang on

Looking good. Is there water in the pan? Use front burner.

Water is in the pan, half full.
Front burner on high, middle one a low=350

 

[LMichaels]

Honestly Mark turn the middle one off. You will see a far better result. If you need the heat turn up the rear one.

 

[Bruce]

If you need a second burner on, I suggest you go with the front and back. Keep the heat indirect. Also, the burner under the water pan will boil away the water fast. I would fill the pan 3/4 full and keep an eye on it.

I expect with a burner on high and one on medium the temp will continue to rise in the grill so keep an eye on it. You will likely have to turn down one or both after the grill fully heats up.

 

[MarkCuda]

Thanks guys, noted and done

 

[MarkCuda]

Front on high, rear on low.
Holding 350

 

[MarkCuda]

I feel like a kid with a new toy

 

[MarkCuda]

After 1 hour, 137 in the breast.

 

[Bruce]

160-165 is the target. After it is done, take it in and tent it with tin foil for about 20 minutes before carving it. If you want a little crispier skin, turn up the heat to full three burner for 5 minutes or so at the end. But keep an eye on it so you don't burn it.

I died and was lucky enough to go to Heaven
No more deep frying our turkeys.
