Outdoor Cooking

Ok - I did not want to go out with the ice storm and snow today so I decided to use a photo from camping over Labor Day.  This is a 15 lb Turkey that we hang upside down over an open fire.  It takes 5 - 6 hours and it has a slight smokey taste.  We usually do this on Labor Day or Columbus Day when it is a little bit cooler and everyone loves to sit around the fire.

We always have lots of people saying "I'm joining you for supper!"

  3. I second the thought about learning. I never saw a turkey cooked that way.

  4. Ok Ron - How can that be me in the picture if I took it! We usually end up serving 8 - 10 people and still have Turkey to take home or have sandwiches. The thing that is neat is it is so moist -- you would not think it would be with all the juices dropping into the fire but it is. I wish I could do Thanksgiving that way but it's never warm enough outside at that time.
