How to Cook the Perfect Rotisserie Turkey – Juicy, Crispy, and Full of Flavor! I’ve cooked Turkeys a lot of different ways… but this Rotisserie Turkey experiment on my Primo Grill had some of the best flavor of all the birds I’ve smoked.

Rotisserie Turkey Recipe
Ingredients:
– 1 whole turkey 10-12lb
– 8oz Malcom’s Bird Brine
– 1 gallon water
– 1 bottle cooking spray
– 1/4 cup Killer Hogs Bayou Blend Cajun Seasoning
Directions:
1. Place the turkey in a brine bucket lined with a meat bag. Add the Bird Brine and cover with water. Refrigerate for 24 hours.
2. Remove the turkey from the brine and pat dry with paper towel. Truss the bird with butcher twine to keep the wings and legs secure and stuff the cavity with the peeled onion and an apple.
3. Run the spit through the turkey and secure it with the meat forks on each end.
4. Fire up a pit set up for rotisserie cooking – I used my Primo grill and Royal Oak lump charcoal running at 375°F the entire cook.
5. Place the spit on the Primo and start the motor. Spray the skin with an even coat of cooking spray and season with the Bayou Blend Cajun Seasoning.
6. Cook the turkey for 45 minutes then rake the coals to the sides. Continue cooking until the internal temperature in the breast reaches 160°F.
7, Remove the spit from the grill and rest the turkey for 20 minutes before carving. The final internal temperature should be 165°F in the breast and 175°F in the dark meat.

Thanks for the great video. I've been doing rotisserie turkeys for Thanksgiving on my Weber Kettle for about 10 years in a row, and will be continuing the tradition again this year. The turkey always turns out super moist and flavorful with some smoke flavor thanks to pre-soaked apple wood chips I add on top of the briquettes periodically throughout the cook. The recipe I use as a guide is Weber's Sage, Orange, and Clove Rotisserie Turkey. If you haven't tried cooking your turkey on the rotisserie, you definitely need to give it a try.
Fantastic
Are the legs and thighs cooked enough?
Hey, that's weird I just bought a weber kettle rotisserie to rotisserie smoke my turkey this year..thought I'd be on of the trailblazers but nope here you are😂😂😂 Cheers and thanks for the tips..love your podcasts
Looks good, I believe everything looks and tastes better if it’s NOT cooked on a pellet grill.
I've been making turkeys like this for years. Can't believe I've done something the master hasn't done before
Looks awesome

Things that may sound weird when you're poking a bird with something long and hard: "That feels pretty thight there"
I think I need to trade my BGE for a Primo XL

Top notch 👌
I got a Pitboss 850 . I wish to god they would have a rotisserie for it . I had a gas grill years ago that had that and my chickens were great . I need a new pellet grill that offers that option .
It should be called how to bbq wrong. At 7:38 that drum is so raw. 1 1/2 hrs was too good to be true for a 11lb bird
Rotisserie anything seems to work well for almost everything! – Beef, pork, poultry – you name it. – Thanks – Cheers!
That turkey looks awesome! Well done, Sir!
Looks awesome 👍👍
Really wish you didn’t use Pam spray on your meats. It’s literally plastic that you’re eating. Thats why it gives you that perfect color and shine….
Is bayou blend new? Or rebranded King Craw which we have been crushing up here in Chicago.
The tea-brined turkey took a whole bottle of your brine mixture, but this one only half? We're you not happy with the tea-brined turkey?
My only issue/question is what about all of those drippings? Love the video as always! Great time of year.
👍👌
Great cook! I think I can speak for everyone who uses a ceramic smooker and say they always cook fast!!!. Never been over 2 hours for turkey, never over 6 hours for pork butt.
I have tried so many of Malcom's recipes, they all ways turn out so good. Wish I had a rotisserie.
That's some fine dining right there. Thanks for sharing with us Malcom. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your families. Fred.
What da F…k is a YALL?
I have been doing the turkey on the rotisserie for 3 or 4 years now. I have done the turkey on the WSM and the kettle. I prefer the kettle because the flavor does not have the overpowering smokey taste. Looks so good!
That drumstick you cut off first didn't look cooked.
Gotta convince my brother
Outstanding as usual!!!~
How was the dark meat? No one ever show’s it
Was this bird pre brined like most are. Can you brine a bird that is already been brined
i like watching you cook, but I don't like watching you eat, eat, eat.
