I have acquired the bird. It weighs in at 13.82 pounds. Just under the 14 pound maximum for the 22" Weber grille. It will be thawing peacefully in my fridge for the rest of the week.

How could you possibly know that? Are you sitting on a shelf inside the refrigerator monitoring the thawing?
Comment by Joe on November 14, 2016 at 9:47pm
It could very well be tap dancing and singing "Yankee Doodle Dandy" while thawing, which would certainly rule out "peacefully".

I assure you, it is quite frozen. And I do have a thermometer. It is not flopping and fighting its demise. Unlike the Sarah Palin video of 2008 where she stood in front of live turkey draining stations at a turkey farm.

Note to everybody: it looks like Joe was right, and that there'll be a bit of rain on Saturday and Sunday. The show will go on, and we'll have lotsa tentage for socializing and cooking.  So don't let a little rain ruin our parade.

Brett Link: I talked with Tom today. He says you are welcome to share #22 with him.

Thanks Gene. We are meeting the couple we are going with tonight to discuss food ideas, but as far as gear, we know that we are bringing a 2 burner stove, 2 crockpots, and some pudgie pie makers. Sounds like stuffing still hasn't been called, so we'll talk about that. Otherwise, we will probably bring a bunch of appetizers, hot and cold, and some meat to grill.

We are coming up on Saturday, so if anyone forgets any ingredients, just let us know by 7am Saturday.

I'm seeing a 60-70 % chance of sky water for the weekend.  It'll prolly blow over.

Sun charm.  Sun charm.  Sun charm.

Still looking for somebody to volunteer a turkey-size cutting board...
