- Sprinkle the remaining spice mixture all over the outside of the turkey.
- Place the turkey over the sitter.
- Place the sitter on the grill grate being care to keep the turkey balanced on the sitter.
- Close the grill lid and allow the turkey to cook 2 1/2 hours or until the internal temperature taken in the breast reaches 170 degrees.

- Allow the turkey to rest an additional 25 minutes before carving.

Notes
Turkey sitters can be found at any major department store. The grill lid may not completely close over the turkey but a small gap will not hinder the cooking of the turkey. A piece of aluminum foil can be placed in the grill lid to protect the turkey while cooking.
