While everyone who grills is probably comfortable grilling chicken breasts, thighs, kabobs, and whole fryers, grilling a whole turkey might seem daunting.
But grill-roasting a turkey is easier than you think. In principal, the biggest difference between grilling a turkey or any other piece of poultry is the amount of time required to bring it to golden-brown, aromatic perfection.
But the added benefit of cooking a turkey over charcoal is the unique flavors only cooking with smoke and flame can impart.
While grill-roasting, the turkey will render a considerable amount of juice so you need to use a drip pan. Fill the drip pan about half full with water, wine, beer, or any other liquid. Replenish the liquid as needed to maintain a consistent level for the duration of the cooking time.
