Nice video, I did my Turkey crown last year in Kamado topped with bacon lattice. I thought the skin was a bit rubbery but I cooked at 150c max. I noticed you cooked towards the 200c did that help crisp the skin up? or do you think go lower early on, take the bacon off around 40c and crank heat up to higher for remaining cook? or just leave bacon on and crank heat up?

 

I think cooking at th higher temperature certainly helped to keep the skin crispy!

Turkey cooked in a Wood Fired Oven!

Take 1 Turkey

Put some flavored Butter under the skin

Add a Bacon Weave to protect the top.

Get it in the Wood Fired Oven, running approximately at 180’C

Two Hours later

Rest then carve

Lovely moist Turkey!

Happy Christmas to one and all 🎅🎄

And please remember, a Turkey is not just for Christmas!

I would say its between @Smokin Monkey and @pittmab this month.

I think my dish is overshadowed by smokin monkey's and my cooking style is outmatched by Pittmab's👍🍻

A great collection of entries😁

Haha, but I am the one who decides, and I can not really pick myself! 

The his is my entry for Stewtember, Goan Chicken Curry, Xacutti, served with Basmati Rice and a Flat Bread.

So it looks like a clean sweep for Curry for the Stewtember Competition!

Love the name stewtember!

I thought @Justin would have prefered something with raw onions 😂🤣😂😉🔥

Haha, might do Oniontober!

It’s the month of September so we have a New Monthly Competition!

The idea for this months subject came from @Justin !

The topic is…………… Stewtember!

Can be traditional Stew, Soup or something more exotic like Italian Meatballs or a Curry.

Just needs to be cooked in a pot on the BBQ!

Have Fun  

And the winner for the August Monthly Competition- Camping Food

Well done, great cook and a great write up!
