As a guy that was raised on a turkey farm. I can honestly say that you hit every important point on the beak. Very well done. Thanks for pointing out the proper way to measure the oil for an oil fryer. Cuz I'm a firefighter too and I've seen what happens when you F that step up. It's not pretty and people do get injured or killed every year because of it.
Just as an extra piece of trivia to add to your point…: Every molecule of water that turns to steam expands about 1600 times. All of those water molecules on a moist turkey hitting boiling oil and expanding all at once makes for one hell of a plume of steam and boiling oil… Take your time and do it right people.
Unequivocally, the best turkey I have ever made. Spatchcock, dry brine, butter, thyme, rosemary, sage rub, oven roasted. So easy and delicious. THANK YOU for this outstanding recipe. It’s the only way I’ll ever make turkey again. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
The oil less fryer is legit. After deep frying turkeys for years for our family , this is by far easier. One doesn’t have the oil to filter and dispose of. Cleaning cooker is simpler. Also try a beef or pork roast in it is amazing, too.
as a firefighter in TEXAS ..... thank you, thank you, thank you for doing the little demo on the turkey fryer oil level ... every year around this time my heart gets broken as i fight house fires caused by that very thing and i see peoples thanksgiving and Christmas go up in smoke knowing they are going to be left with close to nothing to celebrate and sometimes loved ones get hurt or killed in the process .... so thank you AGAIN !!!
I intend to combine the #1 method with your favorite method. My Turkey (about 20 lb.) will be butchered on Tuesday morning and I'll get him about 1:00 p.m.. I'm not going to spatchcock my bird but will do a wet brine on Tuesday and be removed on Wednesday afternoon and place in the fridge until I get hime from work about 2:00 a.m. and put it on my Pit Boss Pro Series 1150 on high smoke at 180° for about 7 hours. Then into a 350° oven until about 160 or so. I can't wait. Great job.
My 16 year old son is cooking our turkey this year. I have full faith that he will do amazing. My mom makes giblet gravy every year and it’s soooooo good.
Did the Oven version of this, but at 325 on the pellet grill. Took just over 2 hours and BY FAR the best turkey ever had. Like a turkey sized rotisserie chicken. Will be repeating this all year
I started cooking my turkeys spatchcock about 2 years ago, It’s really the best way to cook your turkey. I will never ever go back to cooking a turkey the traditional way, i’m saving about 3 hours by cooking it spatchcock. The skin comes out perfectly crispy every time.
Spatchcocking and dry brining! Genius! Best turkey I have ever made. The moistest and most delicious turkey ever! Thank you for sharing this easy technique.
One of your best videos ever.! Besides being perfectly topical you covered a lot of territory in a short amount of time, the best was your solution to the proper amount of oil to put tin a fryer. Fun and informative!
That infrared oil less deep fryer is slick. Probably is significantly better than a traditional deep fryer because the oil doesn't wash off all the seasonings. Didn't even know a device like that existed..
Having spatchcocked turkeys and chickens before -- no matter if you're using an oven or a smoker -- I highly recommend investing in a metal pizza spatula (but especially for the grill/smoker transfers). A little investment and much less worry and/or heartburn in getting your creation safely to the carving board. Worth every single cent!
I always use my Weber...easy, and perfect every time! Add Fresh Bay leaves to the coals for an outdoor flavor while roasting, baste with white wine and butter. High heat to start for the browning and then baste as needed. Would send a picture, but...
So glad you do it this way, I butcher the whole bird before I roast it. First time I did it this way the family thought it was super weird, they then ate the turkey faster than I’ve ever seen. 😂😂😂
I just saw a video last night of someone who did that. Seems to make it easier to get meat cooked to proper temp and more intact crispy skin ( mine!!! All mine!!!)
Nice ways to cook a turkey. I usually have done the "round turkey" method in the oven. Putting seasonings all over it and under the skin. baste it at times while roasting it. Haven't ever brined one though and it still comes out really good. Let it rest before carbing with electric knife. Make the gravy after cooking and shreading the giblets etc. Also put Onions, Carrots, celery, seasonings in both cavaties. tie the wings and legs been cooking them like this for 59 years
I’ve been back to work (yay for my bills) but best part of broken legs was never missing your episodes! My kids don’t enjoy turkey, they waited like 30 years to tell me. If I do a couple big roaster chickens with the fixings I’m happy and so are they. Miss the smell of turkey in my house. They always tell me I can do it for Christmas but they know I’ll be too tired for that crap. Little bitches!
Hey Sam! Can you make a video of you making a Seafood Boil Bag?! Your choice of Crab. (Preferably King Crab) Im curious to how you would make it 🤔 Love to here back from you! 🌽🍤🦀🦞🔥❣️
I spatchcocked my turkey last year and used your dry brine.(the whole process you pasted last year) It was amazing. (And I don't care for turkey, generally) I'll never go back to any other way of cooking a turkey. Thank you!!
I got the oil-less deep fryer in February and I’ve made some amazing chickens in it, I can’t wait to do my first turkey in it next week!!! Perfect timing on the video!!! Stu thanks for getting us all free knives 😂😂😂
It just so happens that I just bought that turkey fryer, it's been delivered tomorrow. But there is one other thing. I just realized why I think I like watching your TH-cam channel so much. I watch a lot of these cooking channels here took find good ideas, most of them it seems are always pushing there own seasonings. I know you have your cook ware, to me that's different, but you don't have any special Sam The Cooking Guy sauces or mixes. What you use is just what I am going to find in my local store. So thank you for being there, and for coming up with fun and interesting meals.
I normally don't cook Turkey, always dry. I tried this in the oven method, and I didn't even do the dry brine for two days. Best Turkey I have even tried. Thank you, this is a game changer.
As always a great video. As a single dad I run out of ideas... until I watch your videos. This will be the first time cooking a turkey as well. Please put me in the drawing for your knives.
Sam, we just made your oven roasted turkey, based on this video for our Chrismakkah dinner. It was the best turkey we have ever made. Thanks so much. You are the best!
Okay, I spatchcocked my Turkey and made an amazing broth and the most delicious Turkey I have ever cooked in my life. Dry Brining and herb butter are now my go-to my roasted chicken game just leveled up. It was amazing and I love that it was done in an hour and 15 (Small bird). Thanks for the time calculations it really helped. I made turkey taquitos with the leftovers. You are a genius.
Ok Sam… I switched up my Turkey this year and followed your oven roasted spatchcocked suggestion. Let me tell you everyone LOVED it. So moist and flavorful. Next year, gonna try the smoker! Thanks for all that you do to bring us mortals to culinary excellence!!
Sam you should try a smoke fried turkey. I did a wet brirne with fresh thyme, sage,rosemary,bay leaf, 1 white onion,1 lemon,1 orange, 4 cups apple cider, coasher salt, sugar. I smoked the turkey in my pit barrel cooker with pecan chunks to 140, then fried in peanut oil to 160. I also did the water displacement test before flying. It had awesome smoke flavor with crispy skin. I'm sure you could use the oil less fryer as well.
I love these types of tutorial videos! So helpful and inspiring. Gets me thinking about how I’m gonna cook my turkey for thanksgiving and what kind of sides I want this year.
Thanks for the great info (as always). I've had a Char Broil Big Easy Oil-less Deep Fryer for many years now and it never disappoints. Cooked quite a few turkeys and dozens of chickens and they always turn out great. It's also good for wings and pork roast, etc. Good to see the Big Easy getting some love from a celebrity chef. Thanks 👍
Never spatchcocked a turkey but it looks great. We have, however, used an oil less fryer for three years and that’s been a huge hit with my family. Absolutely yummy! Thanks for the tips and happy Thanksgiving, y’all.
Spatchcock is the absolute best way to cook turkey or chicken imo. Only annoying part is when you gotta get it off the grill/smoker and want to keep it in one piece for presentation purposes. It even works with those little Cornish hens. They are great for one or two people and not wanting to mess around with finding a use for leftovers.
Hey Sam thanks for the video! Maybe now I can convince my mum spatchcocking a turkey is a good idea! Last year we rotisserie smoked a turkey whole and while that was amazing, it still didn't have good penitration of flavor in the meat.
While you didn’t indicate the specific amounts for the smoked rub, I mixed 1 tablespoon of each and it seems to be working out nicely. Can’t wait to taste this!
So appreciative of this video. I am roasting the Turkey for the first time in 5 years. i usually smoke our Thanksgiving Turkey. Cant wait to see how the gravy comes out with the vermouth steaming the roasted Turkey. Thanks Sam!!!! Happy Thanksgiving
set the oven at 350f and cover the whole turkey with olive oil and then apply spices of your choice then let it sit in the fridge for a good hour maybe 2 next take it out pack the inside with garlic and onions and green peppers and cook till 165f on the breast and 170 on the legs and done do not baste at all or take it out till the last 15 mins add garlic butter all over and do it again for the last 5 mins and the turkey is perfect and crisp
Really enjoying the videos, this is great. My Deep fryer has a mark to show how much oil for how heavy of a turkey, but the water displacement is a great way. I also shut the propane off so there is no flame for it to ignite and relight when I am done putting in the turkey. I would also say slowly put in your turkey so it doesn't boil over, even though you dried it, it still has moister and like you said oil and moisture do not mix well.
Had to come back and give props. Spatchcock baked turkey is the ONLY way we will do turkey from now on. Only changes we made was to add fresh minced garlic to the butter and herbs and then we squeezed a few sour oranges all over it and let it marinate like that overnight…. Best turkey ever. Thank you Sam!
To Sam and the whole crew. My girlfriend and I love your channel, we watch to learn and enjoy the fun that goes into these things as we have started to cook more since lockdown. This was the first recipe we tried with people coming round, the one cooked turkey crown was outstanding and days later it was still nowhere near dry, absolutely delicious and all the family said so. My girlfriends parents even bought me your book for xmas as I'd talked about you so much, wishing you all a wonderful 2023 and hope to get to San Diego one day (we are British!) Keep doing your amazing things, lots of love.
Sam, you should try doing a roasted turkey in the pellet smoker. You get the best of both worlds. Last year I did a wet brine and then just cooked it at 350 on the pellet smoker and it was in a tray so I got the drippings. The smoker I used had a leave in probe so I could watch the temp. Pulled it off, rested for 3 hours, it was AMAZING!!! It got a good smoke ring but it didn't get dried out since it wasn't in on a smoke cycle.
Thank you for yet another good advice video. I love that you always present your material in a way that allows even the most basic among us to follow. You're a godsend to a community of amateur kitcheniers that just want to make good food for our family and be proud of what we do. Thank you thank you thank you and much love from the midwest you lucky warm weather bro, visited last week and I'm so jealous of your San Diego climate. I'd love to see more smoker/bbq material
I have watched this video several times. I have spatchcocked and smoked a turkey a few years ago. This year, I'm spatchcocking and dry brining at home, transporting the bird across state lines to my daughter's home in Georgia and roasting the turkey. Thanks for the very informative video, Sam and crew. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
Been watching for years; one of my favorite videos. Thank you Sam, Max and Chance. If I may,,please make more videos with that glorious beast, the Traeger Timberline.
I've been smoking mine the last few years and everyone's been a huge fan. I'd recommend going at a slightly higher temp for crispier skin. I shoot for 325. Sam's looked really good regardless.

I don't even want to attempt it. But if I did I know how to do it safely now.
Awesome video! The lack of f bombs actually enhanced the presentations. Great job!
Excellent PSA on Deep Fried Turkey.
But still, someone is out there yellin' "Hold My Beer!".
Sam could NOT talk without his hands. I’m with you, nothing better than a turkey cooked in the oven. Yum-mo! I can’t wait!
Unequivocally, the best turkey I have ever made. Spatchcock, dry brine, butter, thyme, rosemary, sage rub, oven roasted. So easy and delicious. THANK YOU for this outstanding recipe. It’s the only way I’ll ever make turkey again. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I keep rewatching this. Once defrosted it can be in the fridge for 4 days. Thanks. Got it. 🙂
I’ve watched many turkey videos over the years as I prepare one or two for our gathering. This is by far the best! Simple yet complete.
The oil less fryer is legit. After deep frying turkeys for years for our family , this is by far easier. One doesn’t have the oil to filter and dispose of. Cleaning cooker is simpler. Also try a beef or pork roast in it is amazing, too.

So what the hell is the oil level?? Might as well mention it if it's so important... Thanks for the service 😊
@@spf-92.5 he told you how to find out how much oil to put in ... watch it again and if you still dont know get back with me and i'll tell you how

Did 425 as he indicated, lowered to 350 after 10 min, way too hot. Turned out great with the seasonings, thanks!!
Giblets and neck rock in the dressing... Gives a lot of flavor, especially the neck...💯👍
The one on the grill for the win.

Sam, hosting 25 people this year. You’re giving me confidence. Thanks to you, Louis and Vancouver
Absolutely the best turkey video ever made. I would be happy with any of them for my dinner. Thank you so so much Sam and crew.
How did you cook it?
The Char Broil infrared fryer is AWESOME! I have cooked many turkeys using this fryer.
Check out Bill Nye with the liquid displacement demo. Sweet!
That infrared oil less deep fryer is slick. Probably is significantly better than a traditional deep fryer because the oil doesn't wash off all the seasonings. Didn't even know a device like that existed..

Ive been doing the infrared oil less deep fryer for my family for about 7 yrs now. They love it. Glad the west coast caught on finally
I cook my turkeys on a weber kettle grill, usually about a 22-pounder, using the indirect method. The smoky Gravy is to DIE for!
Starting making smoked turkeys a couple years ago and never looked back we absolutely love it!!!
Trying the addition of Vermouth today...might have to make pre-dinner Martinis as well. Thanks!
I am going to spatchcock this turkey...just cause of his illustration!
Your Right! Spatchcoking the turkey in the oven changed the game, actually changed my life. Best turkey I have ever made. Thanks for all the videos!
I always use my Weber...easy, and perfect every time! Add Fresh Bay leaves to the coals for an outdoor flavor while roasting, baste with white wine and butter. High heat to start for the browning and then baste as needed.
Would send a picture, but...
I don't ever make a turkey, but i still love your videos
I've been using the oiless air fryer for years. You will not be disappointed!!!!!
So glad you do it this way, I butcher the whole bird before I roast it.

Would love to see how u made the gravy with the juice
Thank you! Great refresher. Smoked is my go to but a couple times a summer, a deep fried is good.
Just finished our Turkey thank you so much ❤️

Oh boy, I think I got myself into some trouble with my idea.
Im going to have to try the spatchcock technique for my turkey this year. All of the turkeys looked amazing.
It just so happens that I just bought that turkey fryer, it's been delivered tomorrow.

Thanks I've been waiting on this
Thanks, I completed my first spatchcocked Thanksgiving dinner. I will definitely continue doing this from now on.

EXCELLENT EXPLANATION! I hate to cook turkey but you made it sound “bearable “, in the oven 👍 I am salivating from all of them 😋😋😋😋😋😋
I'll take one of each, thanks in advance...
Never cooked my Christmas turkey so now it’s my Easter turkey!! 😅
I’m going to make exactly like you did in the oven. Yay! Thanks Sam!!
It's my first time making a turkey & I'm nervous about it. Thanks for showing me how & for inspiring me. 🙂
My first spatchcock smoked turkey was last year. I injected it, mixed rub with butter under the skin and on top.
I love these types of tutorial videos! So helpful and inspiring. Gets me thinking about how I’m gonna cook my turkey for thanksgiving and what kind of sides I want this year.
I really appreciate this video… sofa king useful… also, today is my 40th birthday and my wife bought me your book… can’t wait to read and eat
Love you're videos you are so helpful I did exactly what you did step by step for Thanksgiving yesterday the turkey turned out perfect thank you Sam.
Thank you for the tips! ❤ Now I need one that shows us how to use the neck and giblets to make the gravy 😊
Cooking for one, I expect to cook a turkey breast. Last year did a brine w/ white wine, that was very interesting.
Thank you my mother inlaw is here and we are all about the spatchcock this year!!
Thank you. The oven roasted turkey was the best I ever had and the family was amazed. Crispy, juicy amazing

Never spatchcocked a turkey but it looks great. We have, however, used an oil less fryer for three years and that’s been a huge hit with my family. Absolutely yummy!
Thanks for the tips and happy Thanksgiving, y’all.
Spatchcock is the absolute best way to cook turkey or chicken imo. Only annoying part is when you gotta get it off the grill/smoker and want to keep it in one piece for presentation purposes.
It even works with those little Cornish hens. They are great for one or two people and not wanting to mess around with finding a use for leftovers.
@@Kyle496 Use a metal pizza peel.
Oooo I might spatchcock mine this year and roast it in the oven. I use an herbed mayo rub and that gives me a nice crust XD
I made the oven recipe and it was the best turkey i have ever had.
I have dry brine in the past but never Spatchcocked - I am now going to Spatchcock it everytime from here out
Hey Sam thanks for the video! Maybe now I can convince my mum spatchcocking a turkey is a good idea! Last year we rotisserie smoked a turkey whole and while that was amazing, it still didn't have good penitration of flavor in the meat.

Thanks for the detailed account of preparing turkey in 3 ways including safety tips Sam. I'm now spoilt for choice!!😁
Made the turkey the same way in the oven today, my family LOVED IT! Thanks for the great recipe!
Did the spatchcock turkey for family and friends, it was a hit . Thanks for the info,will never do it any other way 😊
My very first Sam video was of him doing the three ways of deep frying a turkey. Been a fan since and have never deep fried a turkey. 😀
I like the baking method, I am going to try breaking it down like you did by taking the back bone out, great ideas thank you!
So appreciative of this video. I am roasting the Turkey for the first time in 5 years. i usually smoke our Thanksgiving Turkey. Cant wait to see how the gravy comes out with the vermouth steaming the roasted Turkey. Thanks Sam!!!! Happy Thanksgiving
Hey Sam. I’m cooking my turkey in the oven right now the way you showed us! I already know it’s gonna be great. Our first turkey!
The oven Turkey is always good! Nice video on 3 cooking methods. Thxs Sam!
I made the oven roasted version. I was super happy with how it came out!
set the oven at 350f and cover the whole turkey with olive oil and then apply spices of your choice then let it sit in the fridge for a good hour maybe 2 next take it out pack the inside with garlic and onions and green peppers and cook till 165f on the breast and 170 on the legs and done do not baste at all or take it out till the last 15 mins add garlic butter all over and do it again for the last 5 mins and the turkey is perfect and crisp

I've been smoking mine the last few years and everyone's been a huge fan. I'd recommend going at a slightly higher temp for crispier skin. I shoot for 325. Sam's looked really good regardless.
Remember the Butterball 🦃 fryer video ? 😅
Cheers from San Diego California
Thanks for the simple reminders!! You're always giving me other ideas on how to make delicious food! I love that. Happy Thanksgiving guys!!
