We really just have one goal - to make your food life better. Ok that, and be entertained at the same time. And have you learn a few things along the way. So let’s make it 3 goals then.
If you only want the steps to make something, like those vids shot from above with no people, no conversation no nuthin - then we are absolutely not for you. But if you wanna a little fun while you learn, then this is the place.
Cooking doesn’t have to be hard, it just has to be delicious.

THANK YOU ❗️ - Zábava
I love the background noise. Makes the video real which is so hard to find nowadays. Keep up the great entertainment guys!
Agreed.
I can't wait until the neighbors see one of these videos 😂
the barking and kids playing just makes the video sound more lively and family festive :D
We did this last year! Best turkey ever! Everybody agreed that this was definitely the way to cook it for the best tasting turkey for Thanksgiving. 😎😀😎
Sam with the low key 'Shocker' over his left shoulder. This is why I love you Sam.
I can’t believe nobody has commented but this is at least the second time those boys have done this. Doesn’t anyone see the background any more? They have done it again. I guess the theme is correct though, the Cajun shocker goes with the Cajun turkey.
scrolled down in the comments for this....lol
ive been spatchcocking my turkey for a couple years now and it is by far the best way. i watched someone else fully carve the turkey raw, and pan fried the skin of the all the parts then finish in the oven, that also looked pretty good.
I love your outdoor kitchen!
I started spatch cocking my turkey about 10 years ago it is a game changer when it comes to the time and even cooking of a turkey. You can also separate the thigh/leg sections of the turkey from the breast section and put it in about a half hour before the breast. Since the thigh/leg sections takes longer to cook then the breast section.
That's a good idea to seperate 'em.
You should check on it, it's probably ready.
@@TigerMarine62 Lol
@@TigerMarine62 I don't have time right now I am chasing my refrigerator.
Hey there, so you don't have to cover the bird at all? Isn't the 425 too hot? Thx
I made this turkey today exactly like you did except I put it in at 275 on my traeger for 2 hours 45 minutes. THE BEST TURKEY IVE EVER MADE! I did the butter under and over the skin and was skeptical that it would make the skin rubber but I had faith in the process. It was bite through and perfect! Going to do this again next year and just play with spices. Go for more of a savory flavor profile and throw some fresh rosemary under the bird to rest on. Cant wait til next year!!!
I love your spatched lemon garlic chicken. I'm sure when I do this it will be my new favorite way to make turkey.
We’re doing a smoked Cajun turkey this year.
You guys do a great job! Thanks for helping those who enjoy cooking. Ignore the ignorant comments.
I made my first Turkey using your recipe. Thank you so much! It was delicious and amazing. This will be my go to!
Like a few other people here, I made this yesterday at Thanksgiving. I did this cajun one on a smoker (Weber Smokey Mountain) and another traditional roasted in the oven. Both were great, but everyone commented how good the cajun one was. We have a crowd of about 20-25 every year, and I always smoke one of the turkeys. I had several comments that this cajun one is the best smoked turkey we've had yet. People especially liked the spice mixture for the rub. I'm definitely keeping this recipe around for the future.
Thank you very much for all the recipes and inspiration. I hope you and the family had a great Thanksgiving.
Blast from the past, the 3 methods of deep frying turkeys was the 1st video I watched of yours. Been watching ever since.
Is that hand in the background doing the shocker? Lol
Seen it and immediately went to the comments to see if anyone else seen it. Haha. The shocker makes an appearance every now and then. 😂😂
@@newyfreak 🤣
@@newyfreak if she’s lucky ;)
We made this as well, combined with the sides. We were blown away! The 13 lb Turkey was done in 90 mins. We should if done the dry brining over night. We had a hard time getting the cajun buttery topping to stick.
One other thing, we kept having to add more liquids to the bottom of our pan. We keep setting off our alarms off in our house. Turned out great loll
I just spatchcocked my first Turkey!!! I’m so excited!
I made this for Thanksgiving today and it was completely off the charts delicious! I won't make a turkey any other way from now on. Thank you for posting this video!!!!
Y’all NEED to make a video as early as the promos in this the morning or night it’s just sooooo calming
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family! Love you all!
I made this for our Thanksgiving dinner today, and it was honestly the best turkey I've ever had. That spicy kick was exactly what I had been missing at Thanksgiving. And incredibly juicy!
I really can’t wait until the products are actually back in stock!!!! I really want to buy the carving set Sam!!!!
Thanks for the confidence in making this , I did for Thanksgiving and everyone and I mean everyone LOVED it so much that they want me to only make turkey this way ,
I’m going to try this one Sam 👍🏾 thanks for showing me how to do it step by step😎
DUDE!!!! You just helped me create the BEST turkey I have ever made!!! Everyone loved it and I got so many compliments and questions about how I did it. I just directed them to your channel. Thanks Sam for making our Christmas one for the record books!
Know this is unrelated to the topic at hand, but thank you for the garlic scalloped potatoes recipe. Saw your vid, tried it, and it's been a staple for the past few years for important family events. Will be making it again next week, and it was already factored into the meal planning for the Groaning Board (the table groans, we graze and munch for hours). Thank you and your family for this amazing channel.
Thank you Sam! My turkey was a hit this year thanks to you!
Thanks Sam, this recipe put me on the list to make the turkey again for the next 35-40 years...
I'm a fan of the flat bird. This year I'm using a rack over the top of my stuffing, hope it works.
I first had Cajun fried Turkey 15 years ago. Thanksgiving has never been the same
I made this turkey on my pellet grill for Thanksgiving yesterday and it was truly a game changer! We also had a deep turkey, and everyone liked this one better.
Making this recipe for Thanksgiving, can't wait to get a bite.
Wow i was planning on spatchcocking my turkey this year. What timing.
I'll eat that. Like my "PLAIN" turkey, but would do this in february or march for a change. Love your videos and ideas. ❤❤❤❤
Cooked this turkey. everyone just left. I was told to do this again next year. Thank you, mine did not come out looking as good as yours but it was juicy as hell! Thanks
I love slow cooking my turkey overnight. It comes out juicy and fall apart tender.
I made this and was beyond surprised. It was the best turkey I had ever eaten and the gravy I made from the whiskey drippings, I can't even begin to describe. It was my first time removing the back bone. It was a struggle but I made it. Next time I will get someone stronger than I for this task. I kept apologizing to the turkey for bad butchering I did. Thank you for a wonderful new cooking experience and spice rub.
Sam, none of us have ever been bothered by the planes, the landscapers, the construction, the kids, etc...Don't worry about it, Max is way more annoying than anything else
😂
Lmao
@@derekrosas1593p😊
Lmao
Yessssssssss
Important tip, not in the video but in the recipe online: Cover the bird loosely with foil before putting it in the oven. I didn't do that the first time and ended up scraping the outer coating of deliciousness into the trash. Great recipe, though! I'm making it again tomorrow! Wonderful work, Sam and Minions!
Really amazing Turkey here. All the flavors and attention you gave to this Turkey was just outstanding. ❤❤😮
This looks amazing, Will have to try it for sure. But I will miss the stuffing for sure.
I miss Astro's barking! Happy Turkey time!
I made your Cajun turkey today and it is absolutely delicious. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🍁
Ordered my wife you knives. She's been wanting them for a while. Thank you.
I wonder if Astro’s parents had a chuckle when they found out who was buying their home 😂 #NewNeighbors #PoolParty #KidsAndDogs oh my
I followed this recipe and it just came out of the oven it's amazing 👏 I used Ghost Pepper instead of Cayenne though. 1 hour 45 min so fast Thanks for the recipe!
Okay, I am sold...Spatchcock turkey it is....WOW, that looks insanely good!
Thank you Sam
I lived literally right beside an amusement park for years, so that kid noise doesn’t bother me at all. It kind of brings back fond memories.
Happy Thanksgiving Sam and family !!!
Normally, I don't like turkey so much. I made this for Thanksgiving. Not only did it cook in an hour and a half, it was the best turkey we ever ate. We loved it! Thank you for this recipe. 😄
I want that damn BANGER of an intro into a song. Best one on youtube imo. Keep it up fellas!
I've cooked turkeys every way possible. You name it, I've tried it. Not kidding. This method has been the hands down winner. Spatchcocked, dry brined and injected. A simple garlic butter works too. I'm sure this is delicious but, you don't have to get crazy your first time. Work up to it. We used to find the biggest bird to feed everyone. The 12-13 pounders are the best. One goes in the grill and one in the oven. Satisfies everyones tastebuds. Hard to find enough meat to make a sandwich the next day. Used to be plenty. Lol.
Tbh I’ll take Astro barking in the back over the sound of a happy family that’s just minding their business
Happy Turkey Day; that looks gorge!!
Nice. Cajuns stuff with peppers seasonings and garlic. And lots of it
Right boys!..... yeah!!!!! Well trained Sam, well trained....
Love all of your videos would you be able to show a bourbon sweet potato recipe?
I do a deep fried turkey that everyone loves !
If I used this recipie on a treagar what temps would you use. Pellet smokers and turkey is perfect and this looks amazing for it.
Separate the oil from chili crunch and rub the solids under the skin then rub the whole outside with the oil. Makes an amazing Turkey.
I made this yesterday and hands down the BEST TURKEY ive EVER HAD!
I took the extra step of removing the breast bone and then i cooked it on my green egg style grill set up as a smoker…absolutely fantastic looking and tasting when it was done! Ill never go back to cooking any other way! Thanks Sam! Youre my go-to when im looking for something new and delicious!
LIGHTING TIP: When filming and you have a dark/black backgrnd---add some lights behind to give depth. A couple of up-lights or something to gently highlight the background. Don't need to go crazy. Trust me--it REALLY helps. EXTRA: A Key light shining down on his head also helps to make him stand out and not look 2-d. It will help separate him from the flat bkgnd.
Just A free tip from a 30 year vet who did tv and stage lighting for a living. Enjoy...
I’m making this today hope it comes out like yours
My Xmas lunch is now sorted 😊
You should try a jerk marinade and wood fire grill it spatchcocked . It's the besy
WE NEED A STORY TIME WITH SAM !!
Sam, you have changed my game :) ... thank you!!
I wish I could spend Thanksgiving over at Sam’s house
I have not watched tv for two decades, apparently Same the Cooking guy has been on tv and famous LOL I just started watching last month because he is funny and great cooking ideas.
thankful, it came out great
I like this video and officially like you. My Turkey is dry brining now. Thank you
Sam, it looks great. I've never tried this before. I will, but not for Thanksgiving because you miss one of the best parts. The STUFFING. And if you've ever had Gram's stuffing you always remember it... HAPPY THANKSGIVING
He has sides coming. Who knows. I never stuff the turkey anyway. Lol
I switched to Dressing cooked separately. More hygenic and no loss of flavor. I buy 3 or 4 Turkey necks and lay them on top of the Dressing and cover the baking dish with foil. When finished the dressing has the Turkey flavor and then i strip the necks for meat to dice and put into my gravy.
Stuffing is overrated. Dressing is where it's at 🔥
I got pretty good at deep frying a turkey, but it was also such a mess and needed so much attention, I felt like it was THE ONLY thing I could do during. Years ago you did something like 3 different ways to cook a turkey and spatchcocked and dry brined and Traegered. Spatchcock FOR THE WIN. I desperately need to become better at carving turkeys though...
Love the statues in the back lol
Sam, last year I made our best turkey to date using your video on smoking a turkey. Smoking not only resulted in a delicious turkey, but it also freed up our oven for the sides. Would you say this cajun turkey can be smoked? Or would it be better to put on my grill with indirect cooking? (I think I'd have enough room for indirect cooking).
That looks phenomenal 😍
Looking good! Got that new Pocket 3 putting in work.
that looks soo good
Pleaser and teaser hand ending…. Nice!!!! Right boys?
Spatching a turkey last year was hard af 😅
Following from New Orleans, darn near the epicenter of the birthplace of Cajun Turkeys. This is an awesome recipe with dry-brine and injecting, everyone should try this method. I haven’t spatchcock’d a turkey yet, but that’s coming soon. Great episode guys .. can’t wait for the Christmas bone-in prime rib roast episode for twists with that recipe.
Sam that turkey looks super succulent and oh so delicious!😋👨🏼🍳
Invite the kids over for food! Grilled hotdogs or burger, fries and soft drinks!
Sam when are you going to get SPG, The Essential, and The Statement back in stock? Dying to order. Love the cast BTW!
A lot of the knives are currently sold out. Hopefully they're back in stock when the sale starts
I have been spatchcocking my turkeys for a few years now and did not have anything to inject it one time and it was so great. I use a Pit Boss pellet grill and the flavor from the pellets is all we need. I also get some whole young chickens sometimes and do them on the grill. I dry brine them and then just use a small amount of salt, pepper, and a little poultry seasoning I have in the house. Super moist and super flavorful without the extra work. I am cooking a turkey tomorrow for an early Thanksgiving before my son and his family go to Germany for a couple of weeks and this is all I will do. I like the different seasonings every now and then but like a more traditional flavoring for Thanksgiving. Keeping it simple and it is still super moist and flavorful for us. But I will never not spatchcock my birds because that makes them awesome!!
Mazel Tov from VA guys!!! Awesome spatchcocking!!
If you haven't already, can you please do a video of different and creative ways to use leftover turkey? Maybe turkey tacos? Lol
I’d also love this video. I always use the carcass for soup but it gets exhausting when thinking of uses for the meat 😂
I always do a turkey salad for sandwiches and it’s good but you get tired of it after a couple days.
@@MummaQuan I've used turkey, stuffing/dressing mashed left overs with some cream cheese and other items and stuffed pasta shells in a kind of leftover casserole. It was a pretty big hit.
@@JeffFlett that sounds really good, I’d def try it. Thanks!
"I might have to blur this!"...I lost it! 🤣
I’ve done it longer, but for the straight 9yrs I’ve only spatchcocked everything poultry…. Cajun butter injected… mercy. Sooooooo delicious
I remove the keel bone tho…
It worked & was super 💣💣💣💣!!!
Happy Thanksgiving, Sam! And guys!
OMG….I watched vids in wrong order, but HOLY COW I’ve got to make this TURKEY 🦃 One question….Who tells the famdamily that it’s not the same old turkey for us This Year!
11:28 “I might have to blur This “😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The only problem I would have is room in my fridge for a giant tray for 24 hours.
Hey Sam, what kind of kitchen shears are you using?? (and where did you get them?)
I've done multiple searches online and can't locate the ones you're using. I like how the finger loops are nice and big!
So last year I did a Spatchcock and it was magical... but, the cooking pan and sheet I used was too weak and flimsy for the 14 LB turkey I did... any chance I can get a link to the cooking pan with rack you recommend for a 12-14 lb bird?
luv luv luv YOU MAX !!!!!!! and your Team ~!!!!
