Turkey on the Grill

Grilled turkey can be a wonderful variation from oven roasted turkey. Grilling 
a whole turkey or turkey breast requires indirect heat and a drip pan. Start
by washing and seasoning a fully thawed bird. The covered kettle-style grill 
and medium hot coals are recommended for grilling. Arrange hot coals on either
side of the drip pan and position the turkey, breast side down, on an oiled 
V-rack directly over the drip pan. Use a small 8 to 14 pound unstuffed turkey.

About midway through the cooking process, turn the bird breast up. Place about 
10 briquettes on each pile of hot coals every 45 to 50 minutes to maintain
medium heat. For good smoky flavor, dampened wood chips and/or chunks may be 
added as well.

Cover the wing tips with aluminum foil and tuck them underneath the bird to 
prevent burning. Insert a thermometer in the thickest innermost part of the
thigh. A whole turkey is safe when cooked to a minimum internal temperature of 
165 °F as measured with a food thermometer. Check the internal temperature
in the wing and the thickest part of the breast too. For reasons of personal 
preference, you may choose to cook the turkey to higher temperatures.

If the temperature under the hood is hot enough (325°F to 350°F), grilling a 12 
to 14 pound turkey should take approximately 4 hours. If your grill does
not have a thermometer, an oven thermometer can be used. Cooking time may vary 
depending on temperature of the fire, wind and outdoor air temperature.
