 Beer Can Turkey for the Holidays Eat, Drink & Brew Turkey
Logan, Utah - Every year, the turkey always seems to take up all the space in the oven for hours on end, never giving your other holiday dishes a chance to bake. And then, after all that time, another turkey comes out of the oven dry as a bone. The arid results are sure to be a disappointment for not only the chef who devoted more than half a day to effort, but also to the eager family and friends gathered around the table. As the holidays draw closer, family members far and near look forward to a home-cooked holiday feast. Surprise them this year. Instead of serving the traditional dreadedand- disappointing dry turkey, roast a juicy turkey infused with the flavor and moisture of beer! Yes, beer! You read right. The all-American favorite drink. Follow the latest craze in tender chicken cooking: beer can chickens – and apply the method to turkey. But, who can make that blasted turkey stand up on a little beer can, while taking on the beer’s moisture? That is a trick if I’ve ever seen one. Until now. Don’t deep-fry—Here’s why.
Camp Chef introduces the Keg Roaster, an innovative product that uses the power of beer to cook one turkey or three chickens in about an hour. This easy-to-use outdoor roaster alleviates holiday stress by freeing up space in the kitchen to cook other holiday dishes and reduce turkey-cooking time without the hassles and mess of deep-frying. "I love the flavor of beer can turkeys and chickens,” said expert outdoor chef Marla Rawlings. "I can use any type of soda or juice in a can, which is why the Keg Roaster is such a versatile tool. Everybody loves it!” In fact, the Keg Roaster elevates the turkey and allows the fat to drip off and away, sealing the meat in its own juices as it cooks. The process works easily to create a healthy, juicy and tasty turkey. "With the combination of the can of beer and the versatility of the roasting dome, the system makes cooking a dry bird virtually impossible,” said Ty Measom, Camp Chef vice president. "What’s even better is that it comes without the hassles you have from using other methods to cook holiday turkey. The Keg Roaster is faster than oven roasting and so much easier than deep frying.” The Keg Roaster comes with sleeves for the cans to slip in to. The turkey is placed over the sleeves, allowing the flavor of the beverage to be infused into the meat. Not only is this a fun new holiday tradition, but the Keg Roaster is surprisingly easy to use and clean up. Just rinse and load into the dishwasher. No matter your plans for the holidays, the Keg Roaster is versatile for year-round feasts, Set it up on your patio, take it tailgating and on family outings.

Because the Keg Roaster’s easy-to-use design takes less time to cook and clean up, it can help relieve some of the holiday stress and frustration. As much as Americans love holiday parties, these events can often cause more stress than people realize. Worries over a dry bird will only add to this anxiety.

To keep the remainder of your holiday meal as stress-free as possible follow these tips: - Do as much preparation ahead of time, so that you and your guests can enjoy the day together.
- Before the big day experiment with new recipes. Trying a new recipe and hoping it will turn out with a house full of guests can cause a large amount of stress.
- Delegate tasks such as setting the table to others.
- Try not to make everything perfect. Holidays are often remembered by their imperfect events. Besides, most guests will not even notice if the right garnish is on the dip anyway.
- Be sure to get enough sleep. You will not be able to enjoy the holiday if you are not feeling your best.
- Have realistic expectations.
- And finally, relax; your guests will have a better time if you are relaxed.
