you will get rich quick!

Only if I didn't have to boot my wife's car out of the garage to build them . . .

Performance Update:  I know there was talk about the heat levels in the cabinet.  I just finished a 16 hour butt on monday morning and monitored the internal cabinet temps.  It never got above 125 degrees on the back wall.  I'm comfortable with those temps for most cooks.  I will monitor my next pizza cook to see how much higher they may be. 

Cheers!

Thanks.  I'm loving it more every time I cook.  I applied my skills of rib cooking on Saturday following my rib cooking class with Chris at the Dizzy Pig last weekend.  Yum!!!

If you want an impressive presentation and flavor, just do this:

If you don't care about presentation, just spatchcock it and cook raised direct around 400* until breast is 165*.

Wow, great job on that table!  You could sell those.

Hopefully you only have one wife's family to deal with . . . . 

Here is an informative (and entertaining) video on spatchcocking a turkey.  I have used this method many times successfully.  You don't need to buy Fred's rubs - you can use whatever seasoning you like on poultry.

Good luck!  Post some pics of the trail results!

My table continues to perform perfectly.  Cooked a turkey and pork shoulder this weekend.

It remains one of my hallmark woodworking builds to date.  It continues to impress me every time I peel the cover back.  I only wish it could remain uncovered without damage.  Unfortunately, the drawer will fill with water if uncovered in a hard rain.  I do drop a mothball in each drawer over the winter to ward off any furry friends from taking up residence.

You should be proud of yourself with these rules.
