Butterflied Turkey: Take Two

Thanksgiving 2010: A Bird and a Bag!

Grilled Butterflied Turkey is Fast and Easy with GrillGrates!

Bon Appetit Centerfold of Butterflied Turkey

Our local supermarket butterflied a fresh turkey for us and it was easy to prepare and grill.  We did the recipe twice and nearly a third time until I relented and gave up on doing a spatchcock comparison. The game was on when Bon Appetit Magazine arrives with a centerfold shot of what else? Butterflied turkey!

Very nice rosemary rub from bbq.about.com

• We chose a simple brine of 2 gallons of vegetable broth. A trash bag in a bucket worked well for an 8 hour soak.  
• I found a great rosemary rub from bbq.about.comhttp://bbq.about.com/.  Derrick has well organized lists of brines, rubs, grilling methods,
• Amazingribs.com is always a great resource. Here is a link to Craig's Thanksgiving ideas newsletter.  Sign up for Meathead's newsletter.  I read it bumper to bumper!
• Here's a link to butterflied grilled turkey on GrillGrates!  I've already had my hot turkey sandwiches too!  
• AND Yes Virginia there is a difference between butterflying a bird and spatchcocking it. This link takes you to Chris Lily's recipe that is truly spatchcocking.  Next year...
• What are you cooking up for Thanksgiving?
