• Heath Riles BBQ Garlic Jalapeño Rub bit.ly/2yXvmD4

Ingredients:
• Butter
• Extra-virgin olive oil
• Garlic
• Lemon
• Sage
• Rosemary
• Garlic powder
• Heath Riles BBQ Cajun Creole Garlic Butter Rub
• Heath Riles BBQ Garlic Jalapeño Rub
• 12lb Turkey.
Directions:
1. Fire up the deep fryer. I poured grease into the base of the deep fryer and heated it to 350℉.
2. To make the Cajun Creole Injection, I placed the butter, olive oil, garlic cloves, lemon juice, sage, rosemary, garlic powder, Heath Riles BBQ Cajun Creole Garlic Butter Rub, and Heath Riles BBQ Garlic Jalapeño Rub in a small aluminum pan.
3. Set the Cajun Creole Injection ingredients on the Traeger Ironwood XL (fired up to your chosen temp) and let them smoke for about 45 minutes. Then, I strained the injection. Let your injection cool before moving on to the next step.
4. I removed the turkey from its packaging and took out any giblets and debris. I also trimmed any loose skin that would affect its appearance. Then, I patted it down, laid it on a foil-lined baking sheet, and started injecting it in a grid pattern. I rubbed any excess injection into the bird’s skin, which will create an extra-crisp texture.
5. I prefer to season my turkey, so I added a light dusting of Heath Riles BBQ Cajun Creole Garlic Butter Rub.
6. I placed the Cajun Turkey on a vertical-roasting stand and tucked the wings in. I slowly lowered the bird into the oil and let it fry for 42 minutes. Keep in mind that your frying time will vary based on the size of your bird. I usually set aside about 3 ½- 4 minutes PER pound of turkey. The turkey is done when it reaches the 160℉-165℉ range. Check it early, just in case the bird finishes faster than expected.
7. Cool and serve. I carefully removed the turkey from the grease and set it on a foil-lined cooking sheet to dry and cool. Now, the only thing left is to dig in!

Who doesn't eat the skin? That's the best part
Thank you for always showing us great bbq videos. I'm so surprised how much people don't know about these videos. I show everyone I know about how great of bbq you make, and hopefully, we can get you to a million people and up. Love all the seasoning rubs too. Thanks Heath
Thanks for watching!
Safety First! Also be sure to kill the open flame when dropping it in. Then restart the burner.
Got it👍
Thank you very much for showing this recipe vid Heath. I'm definitely going to be doing this for this year's Thanksgiving. Thank you very very much Heath. God bless you and your family. 🤘😎🍻
Same to you!
Looks incredible!
Thanks!
That mug looks so good
Thanks!
Those 2 rubs are epic good man. It's my new go to rub.
Heck yeah!
Looks Great!
Thanks!
Awesome. Gotta get a fryer :)
You should!
Hey Heath - Thanks for the great video! Any reason you didn't brine the turkey first?
Doing things different this year and trying out new ways
I love the skin
Nothing wrong with that
I take my course grind rubs an put them in a coffee grinder and make them a finer grind, that way they will fit through the injection needle
Smart idea!
Tell me about the work table. It looks pretty solid, and like the legs screw into the top. I need something like this.
It's Pecos. Great table. Legs detach, and you can take it anywhere. A lot of BBQ comp guys will use them.
@@HeathRilesBBQ Thank you!
Heath fried or smoke which is best for you ?
I personally enjoy smoked!
I use your Simple Citrus to make a compound butter for under the skin on my chicken/Turkey cooks
Great combo!
😂
