Turkey In A Trash Can
One New Galvanized trash can
(The inside needs to be burned out. Simply
Start a nice fire inside and allow the coating to burn off.
Clean thoroughly after. This only needs to be done once and
The can will be reusable if cleaned after each use.)
One wooden stake (2" diameter, 2 1/2 feet long)
Aluminum foil
25 lbs. Charcoal
1 turkey
Dry Rub
1 tsp Dry Mustard
1 1/2 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
1 tsp Cinnamon
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
2 tsp Paprika
2 Tablespoons Coarse Black Pepper
2 Tablespoons Sea Salt
2 Tablespoons Garlic Powder
1 1/2 Tablespoons Onion Powder
1 tsp Cayenne pepper
2 tsp ***in
Mix together and store in
airtight container in a dark place.
Pound stake into ground. Line ground with foil to extend 10" beyond
Diameter of trash can. Place turkey on stake so it is hanging 2" off
The ground (legs pointing down).
Rub Dry Rub into skin very well.
Place trash can upside down over turkey.

Start 20 lbs. Of charcoal on fire around outside of can and also one
Layer on top of inverted can. This creates a natural convection oven
Which will reach a VERY high temperature.
Allow about 5 minutes per pound when cooking turkey,
or when internal temperature is at least 180F.
Add more charcoal as needed to top and/or bottom to maintain
a constant heat source throughout the cooking period.
