Cooking a turkey on a gas grill rotisserie not only gives it a great taste, it also makes cooking the bird easier than ever. How to cook the perfect turkey may be the food that causes the most angst not only among inexperienced cooks but for those with years of culinary experience as well. Every year the phone hotlines for companies such as Butterball ring off the wall with multitudes of questions regarding preparing the turkey for a holiday feast.
Using a gas grill rotisserie to cook a turkey for Thanksgiving or Christmas also frees up the oven space to cook those yummy side dishes. You can cook the turkey on the spit bar, or for even easier cooking use a turkey holder.

Whichever way you choose to cook the big bird you will get the best results if you have your butcher butterfly it first. Due to the big bones in a whole turkey it is difficult to get even cooking on the spit. A common problem is breast meat that is dry because it is overcooked and undercooked thigh meat. If the turkey is butterflied you will have evenly cooked meat.
Before cooking, season the turkey inside and out and tie it back together. You can add stuffing if you choose, but this will increase the cooking time. Cook on high and remove from heat when the internal temperature is 175 degrees. If the turkey is stuffed, place the thermometer in the stuffing.
After removing from the heat, cover the turkey with foil and let stand for fifteen minutes before carving.
The ginger-flavored cranberry sauce recipe below is easy to make and is a delicious accompaniment for turkey or chicken.
Combine 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water in a medium size boiler. Bring the sugar-water mixture to a boil while stirring constantly to thoroughly dissolve sugar. Boil rapidly for 5 minutes. Add: ½ cup chopped dried apples
2 cups fresh cranberries
1 1/2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
Bring back to a boil. Reduce heat and let uncovered mixture boil gently over medium heat until cranberry skins pop. This will take about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Remove from heat.
This recipe makes 21/2 cups and can be served warmed or chilled.
Happy eating!
