If grilling turkey, use a tin foil roasting pan with a cookie sheet to support roasting pan when transferring turkey to and from grill. (The roasting pan, by itself, will not support the turkey and juices.) Prepare grill for indirect heat according to owner’s manual. After preheating grill, set grill heat to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Length of grilling time is dictated by turkey weight—approximately 2 – 3 hours. If roasting turkey, preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Length of roasting time is dictated by turkey weight—approximately 2 ½ - 2 ¾ hours. 1. Make sure turkey is completely thawed. Clean out both cavities of turkey. (Do not use giblets.) 2. Salt and pepper turkey liberally in both cavities and outer skin. Place vegetables in bottom of roasting pan. Place turkey in a roasting pan over the bed of vegetables. Stuff turkey cavities with sauerkraut. Close turkey legs and then fold over the neck skin flap. Tip turkey up with the large cavity up and pour Leinenkugel’s® Big Butt Doppelbock into the cavity. (Some beer will drain out and into the roasting pan.) Place turkey breast-side down into the roasting pan. 3. Place turkey in grill or oven. Every 25 – 35 minutes baste the turkey with the juices in the pan and then turn the turkey to another side, finishing with the breast-side up. (If juices become low, add water or more Big Butt.) 4. Turkey is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 175-180 degrees F in the meatiest part of thigh or 165 degrees F in the breast. Enjoy the sauerkraut as a side dish.
