What would you could a 46 pound turkery in?

We had a turkey that big. Once it was cleaned, it wouldn't fit in the oven. HA! I cut off the breast and took off the legs and thighs. I cooked the breast in a oven bag in a normal size pan. 11X9 The dark meat was cooked after the breast was done. Don't know where to get any cheap large pans. Good luck.

 

HOLY TURKEY! What if you butterflied it and removed the back, maybe then it would fit on a large cookie sheet laying flat? I would think leaving it whole is going to cause burning on the bottom from the rack having to be so low??? Not sure sorry!

 

Cut him in half and have one half one dinner, the other half the other dinner

 

55 gallon barrel fill with oil get hot over big fire drop turkey in...

 

I have no idea what to tell you but I would LOVE to see a picture of that!

Also, craft stores like AC Moore and Michaels have very large cake pans, or try a professional bakery to see if they would sell you an old used cake pan.

 

Hey!
I would cook him in a pit outside, like a pig. That is one monster bird! Could you post a picture of him so we can see what a 46 pound turkey looks like? Heck, you should get a pony saddle for it and do turkey rides for the kids!
Will it fit in the oven? I have a wood to water stove, and I would saltand season it on the outside, wrap it in foil, and put it in the stove for a few days. I think cooking it outside, in a pit would be your best option. Also you could rent a commercial Bar-be-cue cooker and cook it in the driveway. That sounds deeeeelicioso!

Really love the pit idea, now I'm hungry.

 

Do you have any connections to local restaurants, hospital, nursing home etc. Maybe they would let you borrow a roasting pan. They are usually about 26" square, to fit into commercial ovens.

Imp- you could just put it in your car, and light the garage on fire.
