    Hi JLNC-

    Been egging for almost 10 months now and am a spatchcock chicken convert-much easier and less messy than a beer butt chix and better tasting.  So, I have decided to spatchcock the turkey for Thanksgiving.

    Only challenge I see is getting the backbone out-any pearls of wisdom?? I have a hatchet sharpened and ready if necessary.

    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. CHEETO (aka Agent Orange) makes Nixon look like a saint.

    Many thanks for the suggestions.  I'm sure it will turn out fine-been weber (charcoal then gasser) cooking the T-day bird for about 30 years-haven't had to go the audible with a pizza yet:)
