I am trying a 13.5 lb. turkey on the rotisserie. It has a couple of oranges on the skewer that were part of the recipe.

About an hour and 15 minutes.



This is after 2.5 hours. I will try to get another shot when it's done.

The recipe is from The Weber's Big Book of Grilling by Jamie Purviance and Sandra S. McRae called "Sage, Orange, and Clove Rotisserie Turkey."

It took 3 hours at 350 degrees on the kettle. The white meat came out nice and most, maybe from brining overnight. I'm practicing for Thanksgiving.

That's one purty bird!!!!!!

Don't swallow that pop up timer (A guy in FL sued Tyson Foods and grocery retailer because he swallowed the pop up timer in a turkey. I left before that case was settled but if he got a dime, I hope he choked on it too.)

I used that recipe once for Thanksgiving, sans rotisserie, and it was one of the best turkeys I've ever made.

Thanks for the comments everybody.
I used royal oak lump and a couple handfuls of apple. The rub had some olive oil, plus I put a little butter under the skin before it went on the spit.
