Discard spine.3 Flip the bird back over and rotate out the leg quarters. Give it a firm press right on the center of the breast bone. This will help the bird lay more flat.4 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.5 Place the bird on an elevated rack on a parchment lined baking sheet breast side up. Tuck the wings to ensure they don't stick up and burn.6 In a bowl, combine all the dry seasonings: salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir until well blended.7 Mix half of the seasonings with the butter and rub underneath the skin of the turkey.8 Using a drizzle of olive oil on the exterior of the turkey, rub it in and season the turkey with the remaining dry seasonings.9 Roast in the 400 degree oven until the internal temperature of the breast meat reaches 155 degrees Fahrenheit, and the dark meat reaches 175 degrees, about 2-3 hours. Actual cooking time will depend on the size of your turkey. Use a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy. Let turkey rest for 10 to 20 minutes before carving. Grilling Instructions: Preheat your gas or charcoal grill to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Once the grill reaches temperature, adjust the heat source to create an indirect heat source for cooking. Place the turkey breast side up onto the indirect heat side of the grill. Close the lid and cook until turkey reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit, about 2-3 hours. For a crispier skin, finish the chicken by flipping and cooking breast side down over direct heat for 3-5 minutes to crisp.Smoking Instructions: Preheat your smoker to 225 degrees Fahrenheit. Place spatchcocked turkey breast side up in the smoker. Close the lid and smoke until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit, about 3 - 3 1/2 hours depending on the size of your turkey.Thanks for watching!
