Spicy Cajun Turkey for Thanksgiving? Yes please! We've made plenty of Turkeys before but this might be the last one we ever make I got pretty good at deep frying a turkey, but it was also such a mess and needed so much attention, I felt like it was THE ONLY thing I could do during. Years ago you did something like 3 different ways to cook a turkey and spatchcocked and dry brined and Traegered. Spatchcock FOR THE WIN. I desperately need to become better at carving turkeys though.

The Thing I Hate, Is When Cooks Will Tell You Don't Worry. If You Don't Like it, Cause You Won't Notice it or You Won't Taste It.
I Call Bull. If That Were True, You Wouldn't Use it In The First Place.
You Don't Put Things In A Recipe Because It Won't Be Tasted. You Put it There Specifically Because It Will Change The Flavor and or Texture Of The Dish You're Making.
So Stop Telling People These Lies.

Table salt isn't saltier than kosher salt. NaCl is NaCl lol. Table salt has smaller crystals, so you'll use more to cover the same area than you would if the crystals were bigger. That is why you don't want to use table salt for brining.
Table salt is also iodized, which you need in your diet unless you have another source of iodide. Keep that in mind.

Following from New Orleans, darn near the epicenter of the birthplace of Cajun Turkeys. This is an awesome recipe with dry-brine and injecting, everyone should try this method. I haven t spatchcock d a turkey yet, but that s coming soon. Great episode guys. can t wait for the Christmas bone-in prime rib roast episode for twists with that recipe.

I started spatch cocking my turkey about 10 years ago it is a game changer when it comes to the time and even cooking of a turkey. You can also separate the thigh/leg sections of the turkey from the breast section and put it in about a half hour before the breast. Since the thigh/leg sections takes longer to cook then the breast section.

I took your advice and joined Thrive Market one of your previous sponsors. My first order came with a free jar of ghee. Will this work as good as melted butter? I ve been forbidden to do this recipe for T-Day, but I have 2 other turkeys and this will be done in the future. Love you guys!

ive been spatchcocking my turkey for a couple years now and it is by far the best way. i watched someone else fully carve the turkey raw, and pan fried the skin of the all the parts then finish in the oven, that also looked pretty good.
reply

Sam, it looks great. I've never tried this before. I will, but not for Thanksgiving because you miss one of the best parts. The STUFFING. And if you've ever had Gram's stuffing you always remember it. HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Why you do not show the video that you're eating anymore you could that out. That's the main part when you eating the food swallow in it and then talk and wipe your mouth with the hold Paper tower roll

Dear editor, camera moves too much. Too many cuts. Videos used to look better a few years ago. Often the volume is inconsistent, music is too loud vs voices. Sorry to be critical, still love the show!
reply

I ve done it longer, but for the straight 9yrs I ve only spatchcocked everything poultry. Cajun butter injected mercy. Sooooooo delicious
I remove the keel bone tho

Peel the ribs off of the complete breasts you can literally slice it all into medallions and everyone gets a piece of the breast and the tenderloin. You re welcome
reply

I just watched another one that they spatchcocked and then pulled the breast bone out so when its done you can just cut down the middle and no bone to contend with.
reply

Hey Sam, would this exact method work as well with the cooking part being done on a pellet grill smoker? Looking to 1up my parents this thanksgiving.
reply

We did this last year! Best turkey ever! Everybody agreed that this was definitely the way to cook it for the best tasting turkey for Thanksgiving.
reply

I lived literally right beside an amusement park for years, so that kid noise doesn t bother me at all. It kind of brings back fond memories.

Separate the oil from chili crunch and rub the solids under the skin then rub the whole outside with the oil. Makes an amazing Turkey.

I spatchcocked my turkey last year for the first time, my cheap ass kitchen scissors wouldn't cut it! I had to break out my coping saw!
