Thanks DJM! I feel like a dummy! I will use the grommet slit next time!

Nice results.

I'm surprised that you can't get the 2 wires through the grommet? I can get 3 wires easily.

Maybe I need to change them to some with a larger diameter hole? Not sure. All good none the less!

Thanks tony b. I use the port for the grill temp probe and run the other for the bird but it’s too big to pass through the rubber grommet so I go under lid. Still a good deal and no issue with heat loss in my 32”. 

Turkey was amazing and unbelievably, very little leftovers from this big 24 lb’r. 

:40 mins in. Done went down to 325 when all that turkey went all up in it!

Merry Christmas everyone!

progress when I remember...

Just finished prepping the bird with the wet rub and salt/banking powder combo. Pictures to follow tomorrow!

Thanks Tony b! 

Going to spatchcock a 24 lb turkey for Christmas. I usually do chickens indirect on the top grill with the charcoal basket split and fired on the opposite side. Would you do the same for a turkey? Especially one this size or have a full basket on?
