    mattinthehat,
    Definatly not on the coals but under the turkey. What are you using to hold the turkey? Rack or an upright gizmo that
    goes inside.[p]Joe

    mattinthehat,[p]Avoid on the coals. Charcoal briquettes are a totally different animal than lump charcoal. Briquettes you let get hot and then cook over them, but with lump it is always burning. Placing an aluminum drip pan on lump will do two things. It will restrict airflow needed for the lump to burn, but more importantly it will melt![p]Tim
