I've watched this every year for three years now hahaaa.

Love your vlog I watched it a few years back and it came up in my feed again today. Happy cooking

I’m new just came across this channel because this is what I’m do for the turkey this year 2019 great video very detailed.

I like your collection of Webers. It reminds me of my patio.

Almost that time of year again Jimmy D!!!!! This videos like watching a Christmas story or it's a beautiful life on Christmas owowowowoww

Back in 2021 -- Best Method Ever ! Thanks Jimmy! Happy Thanksgiving y'all !

Thanks for this video Jimmy! I just tried it on my new Weber performance grill and mostly followed what you did. Having never smoked (or even just cooked) a turkey on my own, this seemed intimidating, but it was actually pretty easy to do. And, everyone loved the turkey!

Happy Thanksgiving Jimmy from the land down under we loved your video Katie & Craig

Wow Rancho Murieta! My parents lived there for 23 years. Beautiful country! I'll have to try this.

Thanks for upload and for your work

this video never gets old I mean how often do you get to watch Leo DiCaprio smoke a turkey

Going to use some of your ideas for my turkey this year. Hope it turns out like yours did. Love that applesauce mix to keep it moist. Thanks.

"Applesauce Mix" has NOTHING to do with "Moist". You kids have a LOT to learn about cooking!

Looks so good makes me hungry and dang you grilled it so fast faster than in a regular oven too !!

Excellent video!

Good Job Rob! I hope to see more videos from you!

Where did you get the bottom grate for the charcoal? I have the default one and I can't use any lump charcoal because the small ones just fall through it.

Why are so many people negative? Thanks for the video bud! I would change how I do some things but definitely a great video and it looks like you had fun doing it!

Thanks for the reply Jimmy D

Very nice! I'm thinking of doing a turkey this way for Xmas this year. It's UK weather, though, so it'll be colder than what you had I'm betting, will that make a major difference? I'll also e going with briquettes, will they burn cooler, therefore needing more briquettes and more frequent topups?

jim , looks like a great way to cook a turkey ,I am waiting to get my weber 26.75 kettel ,going to order it this week , should have plenty of room on it, cant wait.

Love the mop... thanks for the post - love smoked turkey

THAT LOOKS AWSOME!!!!

Great video thanks for sharing .. I'm in Texas n 3 weeks away from thanksgiving.. on the apple sauce n juice mix did you use any other spices? If so what did you use? Again awesome video .. ooo one more thing "How bout them COWBOYS!!" 😂😂👊💪👍

Have you grilled any turkeys since? What do you think went wrong with this one?

I used your technique 5 years ago and now my family won't have it any other way! this year I'll post a vid of how to make the greatest gravy on the planet. 8 thanksgivings and counting,... awesome.

Your turkey looks great! What temp was your weber running at?

I made a turkey yesterday and followed your instructions and it was DELICIOUS, thank you for the helpful hints. I had never cooked a turkey on the grill before but it came out perfect. My 11.50 pound turkey took 2 hours to cook and I let it rest for quite a while before we cut into it and it was still nice and warm. Thank you so much!!

did u use a thermometer 2 c if the temp was where it should b when u said "its done"?

Very Nice! Did ya'll use the drippings for the gravy?

Awesome video like you are a Patriot Fan too. Thank you!

ok, I'm convinced - well, didn't take much - I'm smoking the turkey my son brought home (from work) - 22#. I watched the video (without sound), because I was watching several (while doing something else) so I could choose the one I was going to follow. Definitely this one! I don't have a Weber, but it's comparable.. I can't wait ! Thanks for the great video....

Nice Job Jimmy D! I just picked up the Gold Kettle for Labor Day festivities. My ribs came out perfect!!! I had been using a gas grill for the last 10 years but I never did get that smokey flavor. For Thanksgiving we have the whole family over at our house, 40 people! What was the actual cooking time of your turkey?

Who's here in 2020? This is our third year in a row using Jimmy D's method of bbq'ing turkey on the Weber Kettle -- which comes out incredibly delicious. Happy Thanksgiving, ya'll !

I just love a grilled turkey!

Jimmy, what is the desired temperature you were aiming at for the grill? If that is a 22" grill then I cannot use my fire-bricks. Good Job on the bird Jim.

GO PATS!!!

It looks like you have a weber smoker. Why did you choose to use the kettle over the smoker?

You seem to know your BBQs. I've read that adding unlit charcoal is bad because of some by-products from the initial burn .. was told to get them lit first (like in a chimney) and only add them once they're going. What do you think?

Well done fellas!

That's how it's done right there.

Hi I have question, in the video you said you used "mod" to keep the smaller pieces from falling through the charcoal starter and on the grill, what exactly is that? I've look through the home improvement stores and can't find anything like that.

He used hardware cloth aka chicken wire on the bottom of his chimney starter also along the bottom of his charcoal grate.

Remember the Griswold family's Thanksgiving turkey in Christmas Vacation.......

Gol' Dang! Great video! I could almost smell that bird! Sort of figured you were somewhere in Canada because of the French text on the charcoal bag, but whatever. Way to go.

I followed Jimmy D's instructions last Thanks Giving, and my "Bud Lite Lime Turkey" came out perfect. Thanks Brother!!! I put 2 Bottles of Bud Lite Lime and 1 Bottle of Water in my Drip Tray under the Bird with some seasonings.

Anyone that disliked this video did so because they are not Patriots fans. Your instructions and commentary are helpful. Go Rams (2018)! Don't have to be a Pats fan to like this video. Thank you and happy Thanksgiving.

good job jimmy

I was going to get an ugly drum if i sell my weber smokey mountain. I just got a Grill Dome Ceramic, so that has been getting all the love lately.

Good job Jimmy

Good stuff brother

Is it the same process if u cook it solely w/ charcoal?

What was the temp of the bbq, what were the spices used, and what was the finishing temp of the bird??? Critical data missing...

are the vents open or closed throughout ? (top & bottom)

Jimmy D, congrats on your Pats beating my Chargers. There's still a chance they'll face the Rams in the SB but I think they will face the Saints. I will be rooting for the Pats. By the way, I'm smoking a turkey today. We took advantage of post holiday turkey sales. Best regards and go Pats!

Great video, definitely my go to video!

Great MOD!

What was that liquid that he did serve on aluminum plate?

What made you use the kettle over the WSM you have in the background for the Turkey?

What's the diameter measurement on that Weber grill? A 26" or 28"?? Cuz I have an 11lb. Turkey and I wonder what Weber grill it would fit in. Please let me know, thank you.

Why didn't you put some kind of liquid into the pan for the moisture right at the beginning?

@a.barnard3205

5 жыл бұрын

Because moisture comes from the INSIDE of the bird, while it's COOKING and NOT the outside. What, you think every time it rains, YOU are going to become "moist" from the inside just because "moisture" is hitting you from the OUTSIDE?

Looks good. I like your mop sauce idea. I think you'd like using a UDS better. It is so much more efficient.

Basting almost every half hour helps greatly. Using the foil the first 15 minutes to 30, should also cut the cooking time dramatically. Will try it...:)

My husband found ours at ACE hardware and the kettle extension ring to raise the lid online it was about $50.00 but worth it for larger turkeys.

No temperature and not telling how long to cook wow!

damn i wish i had greenery in the background during thnx giving, but no!. its freakin cold as hell and snowing. buyah!

@jeepingneatus You don't really neeed them... I usually just place a drip pan in between the coals and that acts as a separator itself. Otherwise you can find the weber separators at home depot... but you'll pay a lot more than a drip pan for them!

I guess the woman made the sides ahahah I'm glad I watch the whole vid

No water in the drip pan?

Nothing like some dry, burnt turkey🤣🤣🤣🤣 don't give up keep at it you'll get it

What temp are you using?

nice vid, I like to put about a quart of water in the drip tray to start off with.
