    Last Thanksgiving was my 1st. 12lb bird, spatchcocked, indirect @ 375 and it was ready in 2 hours. Not sure how long a non spatchcocked would take, but everyone loved it. Have fun!!

    Pull turkey at 155º breast and/or 165º thigh.  Doesn't really matter what temp you cook at but I usually go somewhere between 300º-400º.  Time is dependent on the size of the bird (maybe 1.5 - 2.5 hours) but pulling it off at the correct temp is what's really important.  Let rest for at least a 1/2 hour.
