It's fast approaching that time again! So I plan on doing a turkey on my kettle for the first time (on the kettle). Not at all worried about it as I've followed Meathead's guidelines with excellent success the last 3 years. I usually do two 15lb birds for quicker cook times and twice the legs. This year the wife wants to stuff a bird like she use to (traditional oven deal) before I discovered The Pit. She says she misses the flavor of the stuffing from inside the turkey. I figured she can do and be responsible for that bird and I'll spatchcock/kettle the other one. Then I realized what if I collect the juices from the practice run I plan on doing this weekend and save them for here to add to whatever stuffing she wants to make?
So with that, what's the best way to collect turkey juices in my kettle in terms of not burning it? Add water or chicken stock to the pan? Or will a dry pan collect it without burning it?
