Spatcock Turkey Breast Direct Heat?

Posts: 16
Happy Gobble Eggers,
I left my plate setter 150 miles away. I have a 6.5 lb turkey breast. Considering spatchcocking it and cooking it on a rigged raised grid direct 300-350.
Anyone know if the drippings will be too much and cause flame heaven? This is just a big breast.
Other option is to halfcock it and try to fit in my 15 quart deep fryer. Kinda leaning towards the fryer since I have never fried one myself... if it fits.
Thanks for any input.

Just took a 15 pound bird off, done spatchcock, raised direct. Came out beautiful. For once, I took a pic, but I left my USB cable at home. :blink:
If I find a cable, I'll send pics, but don't fear the direct flame. You'll be fine. -
Sounds great Jeff. Hope you find a cable.
Ok, now i'm leaning back to the direct raised egg cook.

My sister had the right USB cable for my camera. Here's the spatchcock bird ready to take off the Egg.
