beyond spatchcocked

[carpenter]

has anyone just cut turkey in half and hang it?

The last time I spatchcocked turkeys, I thought about doing that. Wasn't to hang, but was on my offset. I no longer spatchcock chickens, but cut them in half with my poultry sheers. Now you have me thinking about doing that with the turkeys next week... makes things a lot easier to arrange on the smoker.

Six of one, a half dozen of the other. Either way, you're cooking both sides at the same time.

There sure would not be any problem and might even give you some flexibility on placement utility. IMHO

I have cut our turkey in half every year for the last 3 years.

I don't hang it but I smoke half of it on the Weber with the SnS and then I oven roast the other half.

That way I can get the best of both worlds on the dinner table for Thanksgiving.

I have and it works great.

It sure would make the one rebar method a lot easier
