Ingredients1 turkey (12 to 15 pounds), cleaned thoroughly and patted dry½ cup extra-virgin olive oil3 tbsp Dizzy Gourmet Whirly Bird Seasoning1 whole onion, cut in half 1 stalk celery2 cups chicken broth, wine or water A Mixture of aromatics, such as sage sprigs, onion wedges, and halved garlic heads, for filling the cavity

Method• Set the EGG for indirect cooking with a convEGGtor at 350°F/177°C. Pecan Smoking Chips can be added to the charcoal for a mild smoke flavor and to add a burnished golden-brown appearance to the turkey.• Combine the oil and Whirly Bird Seasoning in a small bowl. Rub or brush mixture all over the turkey. Stuff the turkey cavity with the mixture of aromatics.• If you are using a Vertical Turkey Roaster, load the seasoned bird onto the roaster, and place into a drip pan. • If you are using a roasting pan you can lay the bird horizontally on a V-Rack to slightly elevate the turkey off the bottom of the roasting pan.• Add the onion and the celery to the drip pan, then fill the drip pan with the chicken broth, wine or water. • Cook the turkey for 15 to 20 minutes per pound until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thighs is above 165°F/74°C. • Remove from heat, and let rest 20 minutes before carving. Reserve the pan drippings to make gravy.
