Ingredients

• ✓ metal garbage can
• aluminum foil
• wood
• lid
• turkey

Instructions

1. 1 Lay about 3 long sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil out on the grass to make a square about 3x3 feet. Pound the wooden stake into the ground in the center of the aluminum foil.
2. 2 Fill the lid of the garbage can with a large pile of charcoal, then light. Place the whole turkey (thawed, of course) onto the stake, legs down. Turn the garbage can upside down and place over the turkey. Place piles of lighted coals on the top and around the sides of the can.
3. 3 Cook for at least 1 1/2 hours or until coals go out. Do not lift the can during cooking. Brush the charcoal off the can and lift off carefully, as some heat may rush out when you do. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh should read at least 180 degrees F (83 degrees C).
