is Blowin Smoke!
Thought I'd practice a little before Turkey Day gets here. I love spatchcocked chicken...love it, love it, love it.
15-lb. turkey
I brined it overnight
Butterflied it (spatchcocked)
Seasoned it
Let it air dry for about 6 hours (looks gnarly, but helps crisp up the skin)
Cooked at 350° over direct heat (no water pan)
Turned out fine. About the only adjustment I'll make next time is to put more sugar in my brine and cook to 170°.
