    Mike Johnson,[p]Wow, James Welborn asked virtually the same question earlier today -- scroll down for some very important tips! Bottom line -- you might not want to do a really big bird vertically -- it'll plug up the top vent and mess with the dome thermometer.[p][Maybe BGE should build a huge Ostrich Egg model to take care of vertical 25 pound birds and whole pigs and so forth.][p]Good luck!

    Mike Johnson,
    I think you'd be hard pressed to get a bird that size on a vertical roaster and get the dome to close. And if it did, it'd probably hit the thermometer.[p]I suggest laying it flat on the grill over a drip pan. Good luck!
