Ingredients
Turkey
- 12-16 lb turkey
- 2 green bell peppers sliced
- 1 red bell pepper sliced
- 1 large onion sliced
- 3-4 stalks celery coarsely chopped
- 1/4 Cup vegetable or canola oil
Cajun Spice Rub
- 1 Tablespoon salt
- 1/2 Tablespoon cayenne pepper
- 1/2 Tablespoon garlic powder
- 1/2 Tablespoon paprika
- 1/2 Tablespoon onion powder
- 1/4 Tablespoon oregano
- 1/4 Tablespoon thyme
- 1/4 Tablespoon pepper

Cajun Sriracha Beer Marinade
- 9 oz Bottle Rogue Sriracha Hot Stout
- 1 Tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 Tablespoons Worcestershire
- 1.5 Tablespoons Cajun Spice Rub
- 1 Tablespoon Sriracha
- 1 Tablespoon salt
Instructions
Cajun Spice Rub
- To make the cajun spice rub, mix all ingredients together in a small bowl.
Cajun Sriracha Beer Marinade
- Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl.
Turkey
- One hour before roasting, remove turkey from the refrigerator.
- Place turkey on a rack in a roasting pan.
- Fill up your meat injector with the Sriracha beer marinade. Inject the turkey all over. I usually inject each breast, each leg, each wing, each thigh, and both sides of the back of the turkey.
- Pat dry with paper towels. This is important if you want crispy skin. (And what kind of a psycho doesn't want crispy skin??)
- Sprinkle with the cajun spice rub. Massage into the skin.
- Brush all over with oil.
- Fill cavity with the bell peppers, celery, and onion. Place additional veggies around the turkey in the roasting pan.
- Cook 2-3 hours, basting occasionally. Turkey is done when the thickest part of the breast is 165°.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 20 minutes until carving.
