Ingredients

Preparation

Brine the turkey parts for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Preheat the grill to medium over indirect heat.

Take the turkey parts out of the brine and pat very dry.  Oil the grill and place the parts over direct heat, skin side down to brown the skin.  This should take 5 to 7 minutes.  When the skin is crispy and golden brown, flip the turkey onto the other side and place it on the unheated portion of the grill.  When the internal temperature of the turkey reaches 165° F, this will take 45 minutes to 1 hour, take them off and let them rest for 15 to 20 minutes before serving.
