LOL. Your Hey Google set timer for 20 minutes also set my google for 20 minutes. Great video.

[@richardweaver832]

You're the real deal. Thanks for doing this. It was not only informative but fun watching you making it interesting. Hope you had as much making this video as I did watching it

[@Sooz1234]

It can be helpful to use a deeper roasting pan and put the turkey on celery/carrots/onions/ or a rack to keep it or the juices from burning on the bottom. Also adds a nice flavor to the meat.

I did not know about this technique. I will definitely try this for holidays! Love the apron

[@elderpittman]

Thanks, this is the only way I cook my turkey and you get more crispy skin and it easier to get to the joints for slicing.

I spatchcocked my turnkey this year and used a meat thermostat for the first time. I used the two different temperatures just like you said.. and it turned out amazing. Perfectly browned...moist and flavorful...and it cooked in about 1.5 - 2hrs. I'll never roast another turkey without spatchcocking it again.

[@MyForkingLife]

Awesome! I’m seriously obsessed with this technique lol. So happy it turned out well for you.

[@adreanadotson4621]

Thank you. Made this for Christmas. And now, I'm making it tomorrow.

[@MyForkingLife]

Yay! I love how it cuts down the time in the oven. And the turkey stays juicy.

[@jmorris9931]

Thanks for the illuminating way to cook a large turkey. PS: This method is also great for "smoking" with wood chips on a grill! (Bird fits under grill lid easier if spatchcocked. Keep it moist and keep the chips wettened to prevent flare up.) If you like hickory flavored bird, this works very well!
Great video as usual!

[@MyForkingLife]

You’re so right! I totally forgot about the grill. Thank you 😊

[@wendyellis6402]

Hands down the best way to cook a smallish bird. And no flipping 😊

[@beautifulflorida]

Thank you. Just watched. Will you be doing a gravy recipe before Christmas?

[@shannonwing3450]

I enjoyed learning how to become a turkey chiropractor. Thanks 😁

[@jeannecastellano7181]

Great episode! I've been spatchcocking chickens for years to make that old Italian stand-by, Chicken al Mattone. Spatchcocking a turkey will not only substantially cut down on the cooking time, it will also cut down on energy use. My monthly energy costs have been obscene this year.

[@MyForkingLife]

It sure will. I didn’t even think of that benefit.

[@mailman725]

Need .more rinsing of that turkey before seasoning Queen. Good Job though!!

[@deca12351]

Love your video's and recipe's !! Look forward to your emails !!! I have a lot of them saved for easy reference !!!

[@landline00]

[@francita0076]

I have a 20 pound turkey. Will this method work for a large bird?? Thanks 🙏🏾

[@MyForkingLife]

It will. It’ll need to bake a bit longer but it works.

[@sheld0n]

Thats legit turkey autopsy

[@ChefVicCuisine]
