Just an observation Nigella, don't use Maldon Sea Salt for a brine. What a complete waste of money.

Straight from the Nigel Slater school of "it's Friday lunchtime and you know you have to use up that leftover Vennison and half an organic crossaint that sitting in the fridge."

Good shout that , if it works well it will free up the oven for all the additional stuff, possibly a game changer.

You’ve asked about Turkey, cheese boards and wine in three separate threads. Have you been put in charge of Xmas dinner for the first time?

Has anyone on here ever attempted to cook a Turkey or similar in a Gas BBQ, lid down utilising the temperature gage mounted on the lid?

I did a whole duck on a coal bbq, weber, does that count as similar? Was very nice, honey glazed with some cherries in

Done and definitely doing again Xmas day. Done on the rotisserie, approx 2 hours. Very very tasty. I will turn the burner down slightly next time to not over do the legs but other than that, all good.

You could just deep fry it instead. Only takes 45 minutes.

A mate who moved to the US BBQs his then deep fries it like that. A real game changer apparently.
