+- ⏲️ Prep time: 120 min
+- 🍳 Cook time: 90-180 min
+- 🍽️ Servings: 4 4-15
+
+## Ingredients
+
+- 1 turkey, 5-15 lb. (thawed)
+- 1-2 cups whipped butter (room temperature)
+- 2 cup chicken broth
+- 1-4 tbsp garlic powder (optional)
+- 1 lb mixed vegetables (carrots, potatoes, broccoli, etc.) (optional)
+
+## Directions
+
+1. Mix garlic powder into the whipped butter.
+2. Remove giblets and other materials from the turkey cavity.
+3. Rinse the turkey and pat dry with a towel.
+4. Liberally coat the turkey with the whipped butter mixture. Ensure the entire surface is coated.
+5. Place turkey in a foil baking pan with mixed vegetables. If available, use a rack to elevate the turkey from the bottom of the pan.
+6. Add chicken broth until it coats the bottom of the pan.
+7. Cover the pan in foil.
+8. Ignite the charcoal grill; arrange the coals for indirect cooking. Try to maintain a temperature of 300-400°F.
+9. Place the turkey in pan on the grill and cook indirectly for 1 hour.
+10. Remove the foil, and continue cooking over indirect heat.
+11. Periodically (every 15-30 minutes) baste the turkey with its own juices. If the bottom of the pan is dry, add chicken broth and reduce heat.
+12. Remove when the turkey reaches an internal temperature of 160°F in the breast.
+13. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before carving.
