Infuse moisture and flavor deep into your favorite poultry with the patented Turkey Cannon roasting cylinder. Great for ensuring juicy, tender chicken and turkey every time. Enjoy the flavor of your favorite wine, beer or soda in the grill or kitchen oven. Roast a 12 - lb turkey in less than 2 hours ~How It Works~ The Turkey Cannon uses the heat of your patio grill or home oven, combined with the intense moisture in the cylinder to decrease cooking time and increase flavor. Prepare up to a 24 - pound turkey in only 6 - 7 minutes per pound. ~Step 1.~ Completely thaw the turkey. Untie the legs. Remove tail. neck. excess skin and fat that may be in the way of both cavity openings. Clear out the inside cavity completely. Rinse off the turkey and pat dry. Rub the turkey with olive oil and your favorite rub and or seasoning. ~Step 2.~ Pour approx 1 cup of your favorite liquid into roasting cylinder. Add herbs and spices for added flavor. Place chicken or turkey over cylinder with the breast meat up. Larger birds may require some adjusting (see detailed instructions). ~Step 3.~ Roast on Grill (medium heat) or in kitchen oven. In the oven. place the cannon in a roasting pan to catch excess drippings. Add a few cups of water to the pan to catch the drippings. Start out at 425° for the first 30 minutes and reduce to 350° for the time remaining until the turkey reaches 170°. In the grill. place the cannon on a flat pan to catch drippings and avoid flare ups. Cook at 350 degrees (usually medium to high heat. depending on the grill). Check the meat starting at 1.5 hours for smaller birds and 2 hours for larger ones.
