Looking forward to the results. Bought a bone-in breast today - it is in the fridge thawing. Will try my hanger probably on Sunday.

3.5 hours to cook, turkey came out great.
I really wasn't to impressed with the quality of the hangers for the price, but they work better then hooks for large birds

I have to agree - just looking at the hangers they seem a bit pricey.. BUT your turkey sure does look good! So, probably, thinking about how many turkeys I will do and maybe whole chickens and ducks or geese, they are worth the price?

I still had a lot of charcoal left so I dumped it in a Weber with the Slow n Sear and cooked a 3 pound tri-tip

Nice job Highball!
Just some ideas on getting a more even cook on the turkey's "wing-tips" :

1. you can clip off the wing tips at the joint

2. you can bend them backward to break the joint - them tuck them deep into the "armpit" of the turkey

3. you wrap them with aluminum foil for most or all of the cook time.

I recommend keeping them - and dropping them into a small pot with the giblets to make gravy.
BBQ is neither verb or noun. It is an experience.

The whole turkey came out juicy, just like how chickens do in the PBC
