Equipment

  • 1 Paper Towel
  • 1 Grill
  • 1 Shallow Pan

Ingredients

  • 16-18 lb Turkey
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 each - Whole apple, pears, and oranges

Instructions

  • Dry the turkey with a paper towel after giving it a cold water rinse both inside and out. Follow the preparation and brining directions on your Turkey Bucket Kit.
  • Heat your Pit Boss Grill to 225°F once the brining is finished.
  • Make sure to get underneath the turkey as you apply the olive oil to the skin. Add a little additional Pit Boss Chicken & Poultry Rub by shaking it in.
  • Put the turkey on a pan or drip tray that is shallow. When the turkey is done, the tray will collect the drippings for creating gravy.
  • The turkey should then be placed on your preheated grill. Aim to keep the temperature probe away from any bones when inserting it into the thickest part of the breast.
  • Cooking takes 30 minutes per pound at 225°F, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • When the turkey reaches 165°F, take it off the grill and let it rest for 20 minutes before slicing.
  • Serve immediately!
